Our role as medical malpractice attorneys

Medical malpractice can take many forms. Any improper care, untimely diagnosis or treatment, or negligent performance by a medical professional may constitute malpractice. Surgical errors, prescription drug errors, anesthesia errors, and childbirth injuries can all compromise patient health and quality of life.

As a victim of medical malpractice, turn to an experienced medical malpractice attorney in Pensacola to help you recover your life and your dignity—and, in extreme cases, to recover damages due to the needless death of a loved one. It is estimated that between 44,000 and 98,000 people die each year from preventable medical errors.

Types of cases we handle

We have experience in managing many kinds of medical malpractice and injury cases:

Misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose
Late diagnosis, particularly of cancer

Failure to apply proper treatment
Injuries during surgery

How we can help you

A medical malpractice lawsuit can be the only remedy for a medical injury. Hospitals, doctors, and all medical professionals and staff can be held legally accountable for mistakes that create pain and loss for patients. Compensation for victims is a key element of justice, but does not come easily. A successful medical malpractice lawsuit demands experienced trial attorney knowledge and courtroom skills.

Disability

Having a disability means that you are no longer able to work due to an injury that you have received. We examine your options, and pursue the course of action that best enables you to support yourself and your family.

Social Security disability (SSD)

If you are unable to work for at least 12 months and had previously worked for at least 20 of the past 40 quarters, you may qualify for Social Security disability benefits. Our lawyers help you gather the necessary records to support your claim.

We have a thorough understanding of the process of applying for disability benefits. There can be legal pitfalls, and you should not attempt to file your own SSD claim without the experienced support of Baker & Baker.
