Emergency Room Malpractice Attorneys
We Seek Justice For Victims of Emergency Room Malpractice or Negligence
Emergency rooms are high-pressure environments. Doctors and nurses are often overworked, understaffed, and rushing between critical patients. We understand the challenges they face.
However, chaos is not a free pass for substandard medical care.
When you enter an emergency department in Pennsylvania, you place enormous trust in the medical professionals to stabilize your condition and identify life-threatening issues. When that trust is broken through incompetence, rushing, or a failure to follow basic protocols, the consequences are often devastating, severe, permanent injury or even wrongful death.

What Constitutes Emergency Room Malpractice?
Not every bad outcome in an ER is malpractice. Sometimes, despite the best efforts of medical teams, patients cannot be saved or their conditions deteriorate.
Emergency Room malpractice occurs when a doctor, nurse, or hospital facility deviates from the accepted standard of care that a competent medical professional would have provided under similar emergency circumstances, and that deviation directly causes significant harm to the patient.
These cases often hinge on proving that the error was preventable, even amidst the urgency of an ER visit.
Common Examples of ER Negligence
Because emergency rooms must triage and treat a vast array of conditions rapidly, specific types of errors happen more frequently than others. We handle cases involving:
- Failure to Diagnose or Misdiagnosis
- Delayed Treatment
- Failure to Order Necessary Tests
- Premature Discharge
- Medication Errors
- Failure to Recognize Signs of Distress
- Surgical Errors
- Medication Mistakes
