Medical Malpractice

San Jose Medical Malpractice Attorney

Holding doctors and hospitals accountable for their mistakes can be difficult, but the medical malpractice lawyers at the Corsiglia McMahon & Allard  law firm have the determination and the resources to pursue medical malpractice claims for our clients.

In 1975, under the threat of a doctors' strike, the California Legislature passed MICRA (Medical Injury Compensation Reform Act). The law limits the general damages in a medical malpractice lawsuit to $250,000. Economic damages do not have a cap.

If you or a family member has been the victim of cancer misdiagnosis, surgical error,birth injury , pharmacy error, ER mistake , or any other doctor or hospital mistake, we want to hear your story.

  • Before we accept a case, we will do a thorough case evaluation including a review of medical records and expert reviews. It is costly to pursue a medical malpractice claim, and the burden of proof is high. We will give you an honest assessment of your case.

  • Even though the laws favor doctors and hospitals over injured patients, our medical malpractice attorneys have a strong record of success in pursuing complex medical malpractice cases. See our case results for examples.

  • With a nurse paralegal on staff, a network of medical and life planning experts, and attorneys who understand medical science and human biology, our legal team thoroughly documents economic losses and future economic needs .

  • As we develop a case, our lawyers and our staff put ourselves in our client's shoes so that we can fully appreciate the losses endured by the victim and the family. We will present an effective, compelling case to the jury.
