Atlanta Medical Malpractice Attorney
When people hear the term medical malpractice, it automatically suggests that something has gone wrong in the practice of medicine. Healthcare professionals are supposed to help us, and for the most part, they do.
Most healthcare professionals are wonderful, compassionate, and caring. But these doctors and other medical staff are human beings, and human beings make mistakes.
But when a health care professional makes a mistake and a patient is injured, someone must take care of the injured patient and protect their rights. And that is what the Atlanta medical malpractice attorneys do at Piasta Walker Hagenbush, LLC.
If you suspect that you or a loved one has suffered an injury due to medical malpractice in Atlanta, Georgia, call us today at (404) 996-1296 to arrange a free consultation. Our personal injury attorneys in Atlanta can discuss the facts of your case and your rights under the law.

According to a recent study, more than 250,000 people die each year from some form of medical malpractice, from incorrect dosages to surgical errors to wrong diagnoses.
