Medical Malpractice and Personal Injury Attorney Trial Ready from Day One
What Makes Our Firm Different
For over thirty years, Pat Adkinson has represented medical providers in medical malpractice cases at the request of their insurance companies. Now he is putting the experience and legal know-how he gained as a defense attorney to work for victims of medical malpractice.
His unique and in-depth background representing “the other side” enables him to stay one step ahead of the defense attorneys in your case. As a former highly successful defense attorney, he knows how they think, and that knowledge will help you recover the justice you deserve.
Practice Areas
Medical Malpractice
When a medical or health care professional, through an act or failure to act, deviates from professional standards of care and thereby causes injury to a patient, a legal claim for medical malpractice arises.
Personal Injury
The idea behind personal injury law is that if you’ve been injured in an accident, you should be able to recover compensation from the person or entity that caused your injury. At the Adkinson firm we represent plaintiffs in a wide range of personal injury cases.
Wrongful Death
If you are a surviving spouse or close relative of a person who died due to the negligence or misconduct of another, the executor of the estate can bring a wrongful death cause of action on your behalf as well as other close family members (”beneficiaries”) for your loss caused by death.
