How our team can help in cases of misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis

A misdiagnosis or the failure to diagnose conditions such as colon cancer, heart disease, or meningitis can delay critical treatment that might be able to cure the illness or slow its progression. When clients come to us with concerns about their diagnosis, our team does the research, obtains the medical records, and consults with experts in the relevant medical specialties. We determine whether the medical error changed the outcome or progress of your illness. When we accept your case, you can be certain that our attorneys will use their many years of experience to develop a strong argument for compensation for you.

Wrongful death is sometimes the outcome

A delayed diagnosis of breast cancer or heart attack can delay treatment to the point where the disease becomes fatal. In such cases, our lawyers can file a wrongful death claim for the family of the deceased and for his or her estate.

If you or a family member has affected by a misdiagnosis, the attorneys at Lynch, Traub, Keefe & Errante, P.C., can help. We use our extensive resources and our many years of experience to obtain compensation for injured people throughout Connecticut. Contact us to discuss your situation.
