Know When to File a Medical Malpractice

While any error by a healthcare professional has the potential to cause significant harm, not all mistakes are considered medical malpractice. Medical malpractice claims must show, without a doubt, that the health care provider in question failed to meet acceptable standards of care as defined by the law and judged by their peers. As such, you need an expert witness to testify on your behalf during a malpractice lawsuit.

Attorney William McCaskill has an in-depth understanding of Maryland medical malpractice law and can meet with you to determine whether your injury was caused by medical negligence and whether it is worthwhile to pursue a claim. If he believes you do have a valid lawsuit, he works with expert witnesses and third parties to assess the true extent of your injuries and secure evidence to prove your case in court. William is dedicated to seeing your claim through to its ultimate resolution and doggedly pursues justice on your behalf.
