If you suffered a medical malpractice injury resulting in paralysis, you may have the right to seek compensation. The Fitch Law Firm LLC’s Cincinnati paralysis lawyers can help you fight for justice and financial awards. You could win a settlement or verdict to help you pay your medical bills, future care needs, loss of income, and more.

We Can Help You Prove Medical Malpractice

Malpractice cases allow victims to seek compensation for injuries caused by a medical professional’s negligence. Types of malpractice cases include those involving medication errors, surgical errors, missed or wrong diagnosis, and childbirth injuries.

According to Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, to win a malpractice case, you must prove:

  • The health care provider in question owed you a professional duty (e.g., a doctor/patient relationship existed).
  • The health care provider breached their legal duty of care.
  • The breach of their legal duty resulted in your injuries.
  • Your injuries resulted in damages.

The Fitch Law Firm LLC has more than 30 years of experience helping clients from Cincinnati and across Ohio seek justice for their personal injuries. We will help you obtain your medical records, provide proof of your losses, file a malpractice insurance claim, and build a case showing your health care provider is liable for your paralysis.

We Can Help You Secure the Testimony of a Medical Expert

According to Ohio Rule of Civil Procedure §10(D)(2), cases involving medical malpractice require an “affidavit of merit.” This is a statement from an expert witness, usually a medical professional, stating:

  • They have reviewed all available medical records in your case.
  • They are familiar with the standard of care relevant to your case.
  • They believe the standard of care was not met.
  • The failure to meet the standard of care resulted in your injuries.

We can help you find a doctor or other health care provider who can complete this affidavit on your behalf. We can also help you seek testimony from additional medical experts and other witnesses.

You Can Recover Your Losses and Secure Compensation for Your Future Needs

How much your medical malpractice case is worth depends on a variety of factors, including the severity of your paralysis, the extent of your necessary medical treatment, and the value of your lost wages. In general, you can seek compensation for:

Past and Future Medical Care

This includes compensation for the negligent medical care that resulted in your paralysis, as well as future expenses related to treating your injuries. You could win awards to pay for medical devices, mobility aids, physical therapy, nursing care, travel expenses related to your treatment, and more.

Lost Wages

You may lose weeks or months of wages while you are out of work due to your injuries and recovery. Your loss of mobility may mean you can no longer perform the same job you had before your injuries, or that you are unable to work again. We can help you fight for your back pay and seek compensation for your loss of future earning capacity, benefits, and the value of your lost household services.

Pain and Suffering

A paralysis injury can have a huge impact on your way of life. You may not be able to work, contribute to your household, or enjoy activities in the same way as before. Pain and suffering damages compensate victims for the reductions in their physical health, mental and emotional health, and overall quality of life.

When we looked into seeking representation after my son's car accident we did not know anybody who had experience with as an attorney with car wrecks. So we looked online at all the firms that specialize in auto accidents, then by using as our criteria the reviews we selected The Fitch Law firm. Right from the start they were extremely helpful .  They explained how the process would go based on our specifics of the accident and then basically did all the work to file a claim and get all that we were entitled to. Working with Becky and Kirstin was perfect, they kept us informed every step of the way and if we had questions they had time to explain them making sure we understood each time. Our case was not a high dollar amount but they still offered above average service and looked out for us like it was. I highly recommend The Fitch Law firm without hesitation.

Our experience with the Fitch Law Firm was incredible. We worked with Kirstin, and she's really gone above and beyond for us. I cannot recommend them highly enough. After our car accident, we were so overwhelmed by the insurance companies, and Kirstin made everything so easy for us. We never would have gotten such a good settlement without her. They seem to really care about their clients, and they are very responsive. They worked hard to answer our questions thoroughly and in a timely manner.

I was involved in an accident as the passenger of the responsible party during Feb. of 2020. I completed physical therapy in June of the same year. I worked with a firm that was not as responsive as I would have liked, so I sought representation elsewhere to ensure the claim was handled correctly. I couldn’t have been more fortunate to task The Fitch Law Firm with this case. Associate attorney Kirstin Peterson was assigned to my case, and I couldn’t have asked for someone so thorough, professional, responsive and down right genuinely caring than her. There were some unforeseen obstacles, but throughout my doubts she maintained consistent in reassuring me she was doing everything she could to make sure things were going as smoothly as possible. I highly recommend this firm and having nothing but more than positive things to say about the associate attorney assigned to my case. Thank you so much Fitch Law Firm, and Kirstin Peterson. You guys are extraordinary in what you do!

I was in a car accident on 10/21/2018 that was not my fault. I googled different accident laywers. And came across the fitch law firm. From the first time i walked thru the doors mr fitch and becky made me feel at ease. Mr fitch thought my case woukd be good to take on. The other parties insurance was extremely difficult to deal with.and i can say mr fitch represented me well. And Becky checked in on me and kept me updated on the case. Its been 2 years and my case finally settled i was ok with the amount given. And i will use the fitch law firm again if ever needed.
