What matters now
A poor outcome is not always malpractice — but preventable harm deserves answers.
Medical malpractice cases are among the most complex claims in Delaware. They turn on detailed records, the applicable standard of care, and testimony from qualified medical experts. Hospitals and insurers defend them aggressively, so these cases demand careful preparation from the very first review.
Address immediate health needs
Seek appropriate follow-up care. Your current health and safety take priority over gathering evidence.
Request and preserve records
Medical charts, imaging, test results, discharge instructions, billing records, and a personal timeline can help clarify what occurred. A thorough medical-negligence evaluation requires treatment records and qualified review, but you do not need a complete file before contacting me. I can explain which records to request without assuming a provider breached a duty before the evidence is reviewed.
Get a qualified review
A poor outcome is not automatically malpractice. These cases require analysis of the applicable standard of care and whether a departure caused harm. Delaware has very specific rules with regard to medical malpractice claims, and only a small percentage are ultimately viable. However, I look as hard as I can to identify and isolate the medical negligence from the medical records that you're able to provide to me.
