When any one of our lawyers or legal staff reaches out to physicians and hospitals, we personally expect to receive the highest level of medical care available. While this is almost certainly the goal of any health care provider, it does not always end up being the way we expect it to be. Health care providers don’t always achieve their goals and sometimes their lack of success is because of negligence and mistakes that could and should have been avoided.

If you have sustained injuries that you believe are directly related to medical negligence, then we encourage you to contact Mitchell Leeds, LLP at 877-637-1045.

Our highly skilled staff and attorneys are always available to talk with you about your situation. We are California’s leading medical malpractice law firm and are widely recognized for our legal abilities. You can trust our attorneys to deliver the highest quality of legal representation.
