Phoenix Medical Malpractice Lawyers

Medical malpractice is among the top three leading causes of death in the United States — just after heart disease and cancer. That’s a pretty frightening statistic. But aside from the hype about the number of malpractice law suits in the nation, very few medical errors result in compensation awards to the victims. In fact, very few are ever reported.


In excess of 3 billion was paid out on malpractice claims in 2012, but that represented only a minuscule percentage of the cases of irreparable health damage and wrongful death at the hands of negligent doctors and hospitals. Don't be part of the percentage that gets overlooked. If your injury is a direct result of an emergency room mistake, surgical error, or any negligent behavior, call our Phoenix medical malpractice lawyers today to discuss the details of your medical malpractice case.

What is Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice in Arizona, also called medical negligence, is when a doctor, hospital, or other healthcare provider fails to provide the standard of care expected of any reasonably competent member of the Arizona medical professional community in the same specialty, when providing treatment to a similar patient in similar circumstances, and causes the patient to suffer an injury or death. It can be an act of commission—doing something that causes the injury, or omission—failing to perform some test, treatment, or type of care that should have been provided. When medical professionals can be proven to have breached this standard of care, he or she may be held liable for medical malpractice, and the injured patient or bereaved family may be able to receive monetary compensation for damages to their finances, emotional well being, and quality of life.

What to Do If Your Doctor Has Made You Sicker—or Worse

If you or someone you love has been injured or killed by a careless, negligent, or incompetent doctor, you naturally want to see that justice is done. That means that you and your family are adequately compensated for your damages, and a Phoenix medical malpractice attorney can help.

But perhaps just as important, by holding healthcare providers accountable for their failure to live up to their moral and legal responsibility— to avoid doing harm, to provide appropriate medical treatment, and to deliver the standard of care that is accepted by the Arizona medical professional community— you are doing your part to prevent future occurrences of negligent and dangerous medical treatment.

Hold Incompetent Medical Professionals Accountable

At the law firm of Knapp & Roberts, our Phoenix medical malpractice attorneys believe that everyone has the right to quality medical care. We know that doctors aren’t magicians and can’t cure every disease in every case. But what they can do is work diligently to arrive at a proper diagnosis using the many tools available in modern medicine and to take care to keep their skills sharply honed, their medical knowledge up to date, and their attention focused on the patient’s needs and condition at all times—before, during, and after a medical procedure, with meticulous care.

Knapp & Roberts is a Phoenix medical malpractice law firm dedicated to improving the quality of medical professional care in Arizona by holding healthcare providers accountable for the quality of their treatment, and to achieving justice for patients who have been victims of medical negligence and incompetence.
