Getting bad news from your doctor is difficult enough, but when you don’t get it on time, it is even worse. If you’ve experienced the pain of receiving a delayed diagnosis, our team of experienced and dedicated attorneys will fight to get you the justice and compensation that you deserve. With our expansive network of medical experts and deep understanding of legal matters, we can help you receive the best possible outcome for your case.
A delayed diagnosis can lead to serious consequences, both medical and financial. When conditions are not diagnosed and treated in a timely manner, they often spread and get worse.
This can mean more pain, a worse prognosis, and higher treatment costs, which can be physically, mentally, and financially devastating to you. You shouldn’t have to bear the burden of these increased challenges due to a medical professional’s negligence—let our legal team help you seek justice.

A delayed diagnosis is preventable when health care providers follow the rules, but can result in serious harm if they don’t.
Faulty or malfunctioning medical equipment can lead to inaccurate test results and missed diagnoses.
A health care provider may fail to tell another provider important information about your condition, or your doctor may fail to pass the information along to you.
A doctor, nurse practitioner, or physician’s assistant may fail to order necessary tests, misread test results, or ignore warning signs.
If a nurse is not properly trained to identify a condition, he or she may miss key symptoms.
When hospitals and medical staff are overwhelmed, critical details can be missed—leading to diagnostic delays and errors.
If you’ve suffered from a delayed diagnosis, our attorneys will investigate the details of your case to determine what happened, who is responsible, and how much compensation you deserve. No matter what condition or disease you’ve experienced, our legal team can handle it.
