Comprehensive Medical Malpractice Representation in Harrison County, West Virginia
When medical professionals make mistakes that cause harm, you shouldn’t have to face the consequences alone.
Medical bills pile up, you may be unable to work, and dealing with serious injuries can be overwhelming. At Goddard Law, we help Harrison County families get the compensation they deserve after medical malpractice:
- Medical Malpractice – Medical malpractice happens when doctors, nurses, or other healthcare providers fail to provide proper care, causing injury to patients.
- Birth Injury – Medical mistakes during pregnancy, labor, or delivery can cause serious injuries. Birth injuries include cerebral palsy, Erb’s palsy, and brain damage from lack of oxygen.
- Wrongful Death – When medical malpractice causes death, families face emotional pain and financial hardship. Wrongful death can involve surgical errors, missed diagnoses, or medication mistakes.
- Nursing Home Negligence – Nursing home abuse and neglect have become more common. Many patients can’t or won’t report abuse, so family members need to watch for warning signs.

Whether you’re dealing with birth injuries, severe burns, nursing home neglect, or wrongful death, our Harrison County medical malpractice attorney has the experience and dedication to handle your case.

What Damages Can You Recover in a Harrison County Medical Malpractice Case?
If you’ve suffered medical malpractice due to the negligence of others, you may be unsure of what to do next. Let our Harrison County medical malpractice attorney at Goddard Law help you navigate the litigation process. From initial consultation (which is at no cost to you) to the final verdict, we guide you every step of the way. Every medical malpractice case is unique, and, therefore, the damages that you could recover after an accident can vary quite drastically. That said, many people who have sustained a personal injury due to someone else’s negligence find that they are entitled to financial compensation for certain damages. This monetary compensation helps an unfairly injured victim obtain the treatment you need to move forward from the accident, free from undue financial strain.
In most cases, our Harrison County personal injury attorney can recover damages for some or all of the following:
- Cost of current and future medical treatment
- Ambulance and/or hospital stay fees
- Lost income/wages from time taken off work to obtain treatment
- Physical pain and emotional/mental distress and suffering
- Ongoing medical care, including physical rehabilitation therapy
- Loss of enjoyment or decreased quality of life
Furthermore, suppose your loved one died due to another person, company, or entity’s negligent actions. In that case, you may be able to recover damages such as medical treatment, funeral costs, loss of companionship, and more. At Goddard Law, our Harrison County personal injury attorney will aggressively pursue damages on your behalf to ensure you recover the maximum amount of compensation.
