Medical Malpractice

Health care professionals must abide by a standard of care in treating patients. Sometimes doctors and hospitals are reckless or negligent or just make mistakes. Traumatic injuries and death can result. Improper conduct can include misdiagnosing diseases, prescribing the wrong or conflicting medication, delaying or failing to provide treatment, surgical errors and child delivery mistakes. Mistakes made during birth can result in maternal as well as infant injuries, including cerebral palsy, brachial injuries, developmental problems, brain injuries and death. Attorney Nicholas repeatedly has fought for children and adults injured by medical malpractice.

Legal Malpractice

Attorneys have ethical and legal obligations to their clients. Clients may not understand their rights or assume no lawyer will take action against one who has run afoul of his or her duties. But lawyers are accountable for failing to protect their clients’ interests. Frank Nicholas has no reservations about holding bad lawyers responsible to their clients when they do not practice within the standards upheld by quality lawyers in the community.
