Nurse Error

Nurse Error Lawyers in Buffalo, NY

Nurses are often intimately involved in a patient’s care and may provide a number of services for the patient. Being overworked and responsible for a large number of patients may lead to a nurse inadvertently cause harm to a patient. In some instances, this can also occur due to carelessness or neglect. Lipsitz Green Scime Cambria’s nurse error attorneys, based in Buffalo, NY, have extensive experience in this sensitive area of law.

Understanding the devastation of nurse error cases

A client who has suffered from a nurse’s error will often feel deeply shaken over the incident and have a strong desire to help prevent it from happening to someone else. Whether a nurse fails to properly care for a patient after surgery, misreads or improperly monitors medical equipment, accidentally administers the wrong medication, performs a medical procedure incorrectly, or otherwise gives substandard care, it can be very difficult to prove negligence. Lipsitz Green thoroughly investigates every aspect of the case and provides an experienced team of medical malpractice attorneys and nurse paralegals to fight tirelessly for justice—both for our client and to help ensure a negative incident is not repeated.
