Medical Malpractice / Nursing Home Abuse

Pennsylvania Medical Malpractice and Birth Injury Attorney

Seeing a doctor should be the first step toward recovery. However, many clients come to the Law Offices of Edward P. Shaughnessy, located in Easton, Pennsylvania in worse condition following medical treatment. Although medical malpractice cases are complex and challenging, we have the experience and the resources needed to effectively handle each client's case.

Sometimes the injuries suffered under a doctor's care are simply unavoidable, while other times, the injuries are a direct result of the physician breaching the most basic standards of care. Our job is to determine what happened and the extent of the damages you have suffered. If negligence has played a part in your medical injury, you can count on the Law Offices of Edward P. Shaughnessy to represent you, no matter how many obstacles need to be overcome.

Clients frequently come to us because a doctor misdiagnosed a disease, failed to diagnose a disease, or committed an error during surgery. These cases resulted in increased medical care, larger costs, and even death.

Our personal injury firm’s emphasis on medical malpractice also includes nursing home negligence and nursing home abuse. You have put a great deal of trust in the nursing home to care for your elderly family member. When that trust is violated, we will help you hold the nursing home facility responsible for their inattentiveness in ignoring bedsores or for the criminal actions of their staff, such as sexual assaults.

We will conduct a detailed investigation for your medical malpractice or nursing home negligence case. This involves bringing in experts to help establish liability. We will be aggressive advocates for you.
