Medical Malpractice FAQ's

At the Law Offices of Tony Zirkle, we represent plaintiffs on a broad range of medical malpractice claims involving such problems as the following:

  • Failure to diagnose serious illness such as heart disease or cancer
  • Emergency room negligence
  • Surgical negligence
  • Birth injuries caused by an obstetrician's errors or other negligence by the delivery team
  • Hospital negligence, such as unattended bleeding, infection, or pressure sores
  • Errors in medication by physicians, nurses, or pharmacists
  • Mistakes by radiologists, anesthesiologists, gastroenterologists, or other specialists

Indiana law severely restricts an injured patient's rights in presenting claims of medical malpractice against most health care providers. In most cases, prior to commencing the lawsuit, it is necessary to notify the state Department of Insurance of the plaintiff's intention to sue a doctor for medical negligence. The claim must then be prepared and presented to a Medical Malpractice Review Board, which reports on the likelihood that the patient can prove liability against the defendant. While the report is not binding on either the patient or the doctor, many cases are settled or abandoned on the basis of the Review Board's conclusions.

Indiana medical malpractice lawyer Tony Zirkle can advise you about all aspects of our state's laws of physician negligence, from the statute of limitations to limits on damages claims. He works closely with outstanding medical experts to investigate and document your malpractice claims both for presentation to the Review Board and if necessary, at trial.

Early engagement and analysis of the experts you need to prove your negligence claims are essential to the success of any medical malpractice lawsuit. For a free consultation about our ability to develop and present your claim, contact the Law Offices of Tony Zirkle, and get an experienced attorney involved without further delay.
