Proven Results in Medical Malpractice Claims

With 40 years of combined experience, William Brewer and Bader Giggenbach have handled all types of cases:

• Failure to diagnose (delayed treatment)
• Wrong diagnosis
• Surgical errors
• Emergency room errors
• Lab errors
• Birth injury
• Anesthesia errors
• Wrong medication / prescription
• Nursing home negligence
• Medical products liability (e.g., pacemaker, heart valve, medication pump)

The "loss of a chance" to treat a condition can have devastating results. One client was treated for ovarian cancer when she actually had colon cancer. Instead of a 70 percent chance of survival, the delayed diagnosis reduced her chances to 25 percent.

Investing in Quality Experts

To prove malpractice, we have to prove (a) that the physician deviated from the professional standard of care and (b) that the negligence caused damage. Brewer & Giggenbach is particular about the experts we use — we invest the dollars to hire the best, and have access to qualified medical experts in various fields:

• In a cancer misdiagnosis case, we used an oncologist and pathologist to show that the treating physician did not order the proper slides that would have correctly diagnosed the tumor.
• In an eye surgery case, we used a forensic pharmacologist and an ophthalmologist to show that a defective eye solution used in surgery caused permanent vision loss.

Uniquely Qualified to Try Cases

Brewer & Giggenbach takes many cases to trial. William Brewer, with 26 years of litigation experience and a degree in physiology, is able to break down technical medical concepts for the jury. Because of our courtroom reputation, clients' prospects for a favorable pre-trial settlement are also improved. We consult with medical specialists, economists, and life care planners to determine the future financial needs of the medical malpractice victim, or to quantify the economic and emotional loss to family members of a medical malpractice wrongful death.
