Selecting the Right Legal Representation for Your Medical Malpractice Case
Choosing the right medical malpractice attorney is one of the most important decisions you will make. Not all personal injury attorneys have the experience or expertise to handle complex medical cases.
At Van Wey, Metzler & Williams, we exclusively focus on catastrophic medical malpractice and birth injury cases, giving our clients a powerful advantage. Here’s what you need to know when selecting an attorney to fight for your rights.
What to Look for in a Medical Malpractice Attorney
1. Experience with Medical Malpractice Cases
Medical malpractice cases require a deep understanding of both medicine and law. Attorneys who handle car accidents or slip-and-fall cases may not have the technical knowledge or network of medical experts required to prove medical negligence.
💡 Tip: Ask the attorney how many medical malpractice cases they have successfully handled.
2. Access to Medical Experts
Proving malpractice requires expert testimony. Your attorney must have access to highly qualified medical professionals who can confirm that the standard of care was violated and led to your injury.
💡 Van Wey, Metzler & Williams has long-standing relationships with leading medical experts nationwide.
3. A Strong Track Record of Success
A history of successful settlements and verdicts demonstrates an attorney’s ability to win cases and secure maximum compensation.
💡 Our firm has secured multi-million-dollar verdicts and settlements for medical malpractice victims across the country.
4. The Resources to Take on Hospitals & Insurance Companies
Hospitals and insurers aggressively defend malpractice claims. Your law firm must have the financial and legal resources to match their power in court.
💡 Our attorneys are prepared to take on hospitals and corporate defense teams, ensuring our clients receive fair treatment.
5. Compassionate, Client-Focused Representation
Medical malpractice cases are emotionally and physically draining for families. Your legal team should be supportive, communicative, and available throughout the process.
💡 At Van Wey, Metzler & Williams, we treat every client like family, providing personal attention and guidance from start to finish.
