Illinois Medical Malpractice Lawyer

Our firm represents people who are injured while in the care of physicians, nurses, surgeons, and other medical professionals. These professionals are required to follow a strict standard of care that should provide patients with the proper treatment and procedures. We help people who have been injured or suffer from illnesses caused by medical negligence. With over 20 years of experience representing injured people, attorney Stephen S. Phalen offers our clients exceptional legal services in the pursuit of proper compensation. With direct access to doctors in specialized areas of medicine, we are able to fully prepare, analyze, and formulate a strategy for each claim.

If you have been injured by the negligence of a physician, orthopedic surgeon, or other medical professional, contact our firm. Mr. Phalen will visit you in your home or other convenient location if you are unable to come to our office. Our firm also offers free consultations, contingent attorney's fees, and Saturday hours.

Medical Malpractice in Chicago, Illinois

Patients place their lives and health in the hands of medical professionals. We help clients obtain compensation for catastrophic injuries and illnesses caused by negligence and misconduct such as:

• Misdiagnosis
• Failure to diagnose or untimely diagnosis (including cancer misdiagnosis)
• Surgical errors, including ordering surgery at the wrong time or for the wrong reason.
• Wrong prescriptions or misfilled prescriptions

We help gastric bypass patients whose gastrointestinal leaks go undiagnosed or are diagnosed too late, leading to infection and eventually corrective surgery.

We help people who underwent treatment without prior consent. This constitutes battery. Medical professionals are required to obtain the consent of their patients before performing a procedure.
