- Birth injuries: Harm to newborns or mothers from negligent delivery care

What to Do If You Suspect Medical Malpractice in Weston
If you believe you or a loved one has suffered harm due to a healthcare provider’s mistake, it is important to take steps that protect your health and legal options. Following a clear process can strengthen your position if you decide to pursue a medical malpractice lawsuit.
These actions help safeguard your rights and improve your situation:
- Seek medical attention if you have ongoing symptoms or concerns. Consider getting a second opinion or transferring care if needed.
- Obtain copies of all medical records from the relevant hospital, clinic, or provider. The patient records department at Cleveland Clinic Florida or Memorial Hospital West can assist you.
- Document what happened by keeping notes about your treatment, symptoms, and interactions with healthcare staff.
- Avoid signing documents from the hospital or insurance company before consulting a qualified lawyer. These documents may limit your legal options.
- Contact our attorneys early so we can guide you, help with reporting issues to the Florida Department of Health if appropriate, and explain your options in straightforward terms.
Keep in mind that Florida law generally allows two years from the date an injury is discovered, or should have been discovered, to file a medical malpractice lawsuit. Acting quickly means our team can gather fresh evidence and help protect your claim.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my situation is medical malpractice or just an honest mistake?
The difference often depends on whether your provider failed to meet accepted standards of care, and if that failure caused your injury. Our attorneys review your records, consult medical experienced, and assess if the facts meet the threshold for a malpractice claim. It is difficult for most people to know on their own, so we offer free case reviews to help you learn more and make informed decisions.
What types of compensation can I recover in a malpractice case?
Compensation in a medical malpractice lawsuit may include payment for medical bills, future health care costs, lost income or earning ability, pain and suffering, and sometimes punitive damages for extreme negligence. We identify every loss that applies to your situation, and our record shows we know how to build the full scope of your damages. Our goal is to recover funds that address both your current and future needs.
How much does it cost to hire your team for a malpractice claim?
Our team works on a contingency fee basis, meaning there are no upfront costs for you. You only pay a fee if we win compensation for you. This ensures you have access to skilled help from a medical malpractice attorney, no matter your financial situation. We make our fee structure clear at your first meeting, so there are never surprises about cost.
Can you take my case if another attorney already turned it down?
We frequently review and sometimes accept cases that other firms declined. Our willingness to take on complex or challenging cases sets us apart. If you feel your case was dismissed unfairly or you want a second opinion, please contact us. Our experience lets us see opportunities that others might miss.
How long do I have to file a claim for medical negligence in Weston?
In Florida, you generally have two years from when you knew or should have known of the injury to file a claim, although exceptions may apply. The deadline can be affected by factors like delayed discovery or situations involving minors. Because these laws are complex and courts in Weston strictly enforce them, reaching out to experienced professionals as soon as possible helps protect your rights.

"I so appreciate their kindness, genuine compassion, & 'got my back' attitude."From the first phone conversation with Lori, to the first time meeting with David and Jeff, all the way through and to the conclusion of my case, I felt as if these people truly cared about what happened to me. They didn’t just see a potential “case”. They were upset with my situation. They wanted to help. Through the years that this whole process takes, I have gotten to know them a bit better, and they have gotten to know me. I now consider them less “my legal team”, and more a part of my extended family, whether they realize it, or like it, or not. I so appreciate their kindness, genuine compassion, and “got my back” attitude. I hope you are never in a situation to need these folks, but if you ever are, I highly recommend talking to them and seeing if it’s a right fit for all.- Joel F.

"Jeff & David are very compassionate, kind & won't let you down."I never thought that anything would ever happen to me that would lead me to post a review about this law office. Unfortunately, I was wrong and what happened was completely unimaginable so much so that police didn’t believe it at first. I was so confused and lost because it seemed that no one believed me. I googled malpractice in Florida and this was one of the offices that popped up. I called and spoke with Lori, the paralegal, and told her everything she believed me and Jeff and David did too. Due to what happened this wasn’t going to just be a civil lawsuit but a criminal one as well. They were a huge help in working with the police to get items that would prove my criminal case and would lead to felony arrest and jail time. They were there to talk to me all throughout the criminal case. Especially, Lori she truly cared and when I was all alone feeling that I wasn’t strong enough to get through this she was always there with good and caring advice. I was with this law firm for the past 3 years and Jeff and David are very compassionate and kind. From the attorneys to the paralegal they worked very hard and did so much that they have changed my life. If you are looking for an attorney office with experienced, knowledgeable, and compassionate staff. I promise they won’t let you down.- Tiffany S.
