Nerve damage can be marked by a number of sensations including tingling, pain, heart problems, loss of mobility and loss of feeling. In very rare cases, serious nerve damage can result in paralysis or death. No matter how minor or major your nerve damage though, you are entitled to compensation when the doctor, surgeon or nursing staff could have easily prevented the damage from occurring. Your Chicago medical malpractice lawyer can ensure the medical care facility is held responsible for the lack of care and attention provided by their staff members.

Nerve damage can be caused by a number of things, but in hospital and other medical situations, it is generally caused by the inexperience, recklessness or negligence of a member of the staff. Some of the most common causes for nerve damage done by a medical professional include improper anesthesia, incorrect incisions, failure to diagnose, unsanitary conditions and general negligence. Most nerve damage injuries are non-reversible which means your life will be changed forever due to a simple lack of care. This is simply unacceptable and a Chicago medical malpractice attorney can help you send a strong message to the medical professionals of the state that nerve damage is something they need to make every effort to prevent.

If you or a loved one has suffered from nerve damage, your Chicago medical malpractice lawyer can help you seek compensation for pain, suffering, lost wages, medical expenses, lost quality of life and more. Please call today to schedule a consultation.
