Chicago, IL Medical Malpractice Attorney

Attorney for Injuries Caused by Hospitals, Doctors, and Other Medical Professionals in Illinois

When you are treated at a hospital or any other type of health facility, you have the right to expect competent care. Medical professionals typically provide diagnoses, treatments, and consultations for various health conditions, and the average layperson assumes that what they say and do is trustworthy. Medical malpractice occurs when a health professional fails to provide a standard level of care, resulting in serious illnesses or injuries, and in some cases, death.

At Sinson Law Group, we have great respect for the medical profession, but we also know that there are those whose negligent actions bring harm to others. Attorney Kent Sinson understands the pain and suffering medical malpractice victims and their families go through, and he fights hard to hold those responsible fully accountable. Kent is approachable and down to earth, and he works closely with his clients to fully understand their cases, so he can develop the most practical and effective path toward a favorable result.

We handle several types of medical malpractice claims, and some of the most common include:

• Medication errors (e.g., dispensing defective or dangerous drugs)
• Delayed diagnosis
• Failure to diagnose
• Birth injuries
• Misread X-rays or ultrasounds
• Medical device malfunctions
• Lack of informed consent

Keep in mind that medical malpractice claims can be brought against a wide range of health care professionals, including:

In cases when there are multiple factors that may have contributed to an illness or injury, it may be difficult to prove medical negligence. For this reason, if you believe you have a claim, it is best to act sooner rather than later, so we can preserve important evidence that may be critical in the success of your case.
