Medical Malpractice Attorney in Arlington

When a medical procedure leads to serious injuries or the death of a loved one, you may be able to file a medical malpractice claim. Although Arlington and the state of Texas have some of the most plaintiff-unfriendly laws in the United States regarding medical negligence, all you need is a valid case and the right medical malpractice attorney in Arlington to fight for you.

To give you some perspective, before you even file a lawsuit against the health care provider at our facility you believe was responsible for your injuries, you must first obtain a Certificate of Merit from a licensed health care professional or experts stating that there's a possibility that you may have a valid case. Even so, the state will still cap your damages depending on who the defendant is, usually a health care provider or facility.

We're not even talking about the strict statute of limitations plaintiffs must adhere to or risk losing their right to sue. That is why it is always advisable to seek legal counsel and representation if you or a loved one has been injured due to someone else's negligence in the medical field.

At Morgan and Morgan, we try more injury cases than any law firm in the United States. If you or a loved one is a medical malpractice victim, please contact us immediately for a free case evaluation. Our internal team of legal and medical experts will review the specifics of your case and contact you to discuss the best steps forward.
