Medical malpractice attorneys know that in today’s world, we rely on the expertise of doctors, nurses, and health care providers to protect our health and well-being. Unfortunately, sometimes this reliance is misplaced. Doctors may fail to properly diagnose conditions or fail to consider all relevant factors before beginning an improper course of treatment. Individuals can sometimes get the wrong prescription filled either prescribed by the doctor or filled incorrectly by the pharmacist. While complications and unexpected results can occur with appropriate medical care, if a health care provider negligently causes or contributes to an injury or condition they may be held liable and you may be entitled to compensation.Medical malpractice lawyers can help you collect damages when medical providers fail to give reasonable and appropriate care. Experienced medical malpractice attorneys are needed to handle these cases because they are incredibly complex, and health care providers and their insurance companies will do everything they can to avoid accepting liability for your injuries.

Brain injuries may be caused by a variety of circumstances such as when trauma occurs to the head or brain, or as a result of an illness such as stroke. The actual circumstance that results in injury can vary from common occurrences like auto accidents, falls or gunshots, to the less obvious situations which may occur during the birth process, while under anesthesia, due to infections after dental work, or from lead poisoning. Babies and young children are more susceptible to lead poisoning because they often put their hands or other objects in their mouths such as paint chips containing lead. Their growing bodies also absorb more lead, and their brains and nervous systems are more sensitive to the damaging effects of lead. If not detected early, children with high levels of lead can suffer from damage to the brain and nervous system. Lead at very high levels can cause brain swelling, convulsions, coma and even death. At low levels, lead poisoning has been associated with loss of IQ points and intellect, learning disabilities, academic failure, attention problems (ADHD and ADD), hyperactive behavior, school failure, and antisocial or criminal behavior.
