Seeking Justice for Injury and Death Caused by Failures to Diagnose or Misdiagnoses in Michigan Emergency Rooms
We rely upon hospital emergency rooms to save lives. Emergency rooms (ERs) and trauma centers treat some of the most critically ill patients. In most cases, emergency room doctors and medical personnel provide competent and life-saving care to the patients they treat.
However, when emergency rooms make medical mistakes or fail to act quickly enough, patients' conditions can quickly deteriorate. When doctors or hospitals fail to follow proper procedures or provide inadequate medical care in emergency rooms, patients can be seriously and permanent injured. Some patients even die because of medical mistakes made by overworked health care providers in understaffed emergency rooms.
If you were harmed because of negligent medical care in an emergency room, or a loved one died because of emergency room malpractice, you may be entitled to compensation for your losses.

Attorney Lynn Marie Bredell understands how complicated the law is concerning medical malpractice. She formerly practiced in the area of medical malpractice defense, working for one of the largest law firms in Michigan. Her experience defending these claims gives her a valuable perspective into medical malpractice cases.
People who are seriously injured in car accidents and truck accidents, people who have been injured at work, and people who become ill at home all seek medical treatment at emergency rooms.
Emergency rooms should be equipped to quickly assess a patient's medical condition, correctly diagnose illness or injury, and provide prompt medical treatment. A delay in diagnosis, misdiagnosis, failure to provide needed treatment, or mistakes in treating a serious injury or illness can be devastating to an emergency room patient.
