At Frischman & Rizza, we understand that dealing with the aftermath of medical malpractice can be overwhelming. The physical, emotional, and financial toll can be immense, and choosing the right attorney to represent you is one of the most important decisions you’ll make. From my experience, having a competent and experienced lawyer on your side can make all the difference in securing the compensation you deserve.

What to Look for in a Medical Malpractice Attorney

When you’re searching for legal representation in a medical malpractice case, there are several key factors you should consider:

Experience in Medical Malpractice Cases

Not all attorneys specialize in medical malpractice. This area of law requires a deep understanding of both the medical field and the legal intricacies involved. Medical malpractice cases often involve complex medical terminology, detailed medical records, and expert witness testimonies. You need an attorney who has successfully navigated these complexities before. At Frischman & Rizza, we have years of experience handling medical malpractice claims, and our team is well-versed in the nuances that these cases require.

Track Record of Success

An attorney’s past performance can be a strong indicator of what you might expect in your case. You should look for a lawyer who has a proven track record of securing favorable outcomes for their clients. This includes not only winning cases but also negotiating settlements that fully compensate victims for their losses. At Frischman & Rizza, we’re proud of our history of successful settlements and verdicts, reflecting our dedication to achieving the best possible results for our clients.

Personal Attention to Your Case

Medical malpractice cases are often highly personal and can be emotionally taxing. They require more than just legal expertise; they require empathy and dedication. You deserve an attorney who will give your case the personal attention it needs, someone who will take the time to understand your unique situation and build a strategy tailored to your needs. I believe in building strong, trusting relationships with my clients, and I am committed to being there for you every step of the way.

Clear Communication and Transparency

The legal process can be confusing, especially if you’ve never been involved in a lawsuit before. Your attorney should be someone who communicates clearly and keeps you informed about your case’s progress. This includes explaining legal terms in plain language, providing regular updates, and being available to answer your questions. At Frischman & Rizza, we prioritize transparency and ensure that you understand every aspect of your case, so you can make informed decisions throughout the process.

Access to Medical Experts

A critical component of a successful medical malpractice case is having access to credible medical experts who can testify on your behalf. These experts can provide critical insights into whether a healthcare provider’s actions fell below the standard of care and contributed to your injury. Our firm has established relationships with a network of respected medical professionals who can provide the expert testimony necessary to build a strong case.

Understanding of Local Laws

Medical malpractice laws can vary significantly from state to state. It’s important to choose an attorney who is familiar with the specific laws and regulations in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. This includes understanding the statute of limitations, damage caps, and the specific procedures required for filing a medical malpractice lawsuit in our state. At Frischman & Rizza, we have extensive knowledge of Pennsylvania’s medical malpractice laws and are well-prepared to navigate these challenges on your behalf.

Why Choosing the Right Attorney Matters

Selecting the right medical malpractice attorney isn’t just about finding someone with the right qualifications—it’s about finding someone who will fight for you. Medical malpractice cases are challenging and can take a significant amount of time to resolve. The right attorney will not only have the expertise to handle the legal aspects of your case but will also be your advocate, fighting for the justice and compensation you deserve.
