The Firm represents physicians, hospitals, clinics, nursing homes and other independent and assisted living facilities in the medical and nursing home malpractice arena. Our attorneys are very familiar with the Louisiana Medical Malpractice Act and its nuances, including practice and procedure within the Medical Review Panel process.

Cases handled range from claims of death to skin breakdown. Allegations include any and all breaches of the standard of care, including negligence, misdiagnosis, surgical complications, failure to properly follow and monitor patients, failure to administer medication and treatment, improper supervision and discharge and lack of informed consent.

Likewise, our attorneys' experience over the years in defense of nursing homes and other extended care facilities (and their insurers) has provided them the level of expertise necessary to effectively handle these often difficult claims.

Accordingly the attorneys and paralegals who work in this practice area are well versed in the medical and nursing issues which arise in these type cases. Additionally, the Firm's attorneys have developed a working familiarity with medical professionals of all disciplines so as to have command of needed experts and nominations for medical review panels.
