A Personal Message from Center Founder John Ferguson

familyMy family has experienced firsthand the dangers of medical errors. When my wife Rebecca gave birth to our fraternal twin sons, she developed a complication that went undetected by the doctors (the boys thankfully were fine). After developing a second, dire complication, Rebecca required a large blood transfusion. Because of poor planning, the hospital had inadequate supplies of blood on hand that night, and Rebecca nearly died.

It was extremely fortunate that Rebecca survived without permanent harm — but many victims of medical error are not so fortunate. If you or a loved one have had a bad medical outcome and are wondering whether you might have a valid claim for substantial compensation, contact the Medical Injury Law Center today to get answers to your questions.
