When the Care You Trusted Causes Harm
Medical treatment is supposed to help you heal, not leave you worse off than before. When a preventable mistake happens, the consequences can be devastating, leading to serious complications, prolonged recovery, or permanent health problems that affect every part of your life.
In Fresno, patients and families are often left struggling with pain, unexpected medical bills, and the emotional weight of knowing the harm could have been avoided.
California law allows patients to seek compensation when a healthcare provider fails to meet accepted standards of care, but medical malpractice cases are complex and heavily defended. Hospitals and insurers often deny responsibility, medical records must be carefully analyzed, and strict deadlines apply. Proving negligence while you’re trying to recover can feel overwhelming without experienced legal support.
