Our trial attorneys have earned over $800 million in settlements and jury verdicts. At a time when many personal injury litigation firms shy away from the cost of handling expensive medical malpractice suits, we continue to take on the big insurance companies and hospitals — and win. In today's political climate, insurance company lobbyists have taken an unprecedented attack on the American judicial system through so-called "tort reform". Tort reform has had its biggest impact on medical malpractice cases. Today, many states have passed legislation that limits the amount of money a person, usually elderly or financially vulnerable, can obtain in a medical malpractice lawsuit. Tort reform laws also drive up the expense of litigating malpractice cases by placing strict expert witness requirements and restrictive timelines on plaintiffs' attorneys. Sadly, the end result is that medical malpractice cases are too complex and financially too risky for most plaintiffs' firms to handle.
At Humphrey, Farrington & McClain, we continue to take on extensive and complex medical malpractice cases. Though "tort reform" laws have dramatically reduced your right to bring a lawsuit, medical errors still happen every day. When someone is seriously injured or killed because of medical malpractice, the lawyers at Humphrey Farrington & McClain will not be deterred or intimidated by insurance lobbyists and their army of lawyers.
