Safety laws and regulations exist to protect us from harm. When big businesses, negligent medical professionals, or individuals breach these safety regulations, this puts the community at risk. It's time for consumers to stand up to negligent businesses and individuals and hold them responsible for their actions.
Whether you or a loved one has been hurt by a dangerous drug, defective medical products, or any other form of medical malpractice, David C. Rash and Jeff D. Mueller are ready to protect you. Our Weston medical malpractice attorneys have taken on large corporations and successfully held wrongdoers responsible for their failures to follow basic laws.
What Is Medical Malpractice?
Medical malpractice occurs when a medical professional injures a patient by deviating from professional standard of behavior. Whether through negligence, or an act of omission, these medical professions can be held liable. Elements of a claim include:
- A doctor-patient relationship
- Negligence
- Proof the negligence caused an injury
- Proof the injury caused damages
Medical Malpractice Statute of Limitations in Florida
When we encourage you to not hesitate, we do not exaggerate. Florida has some of the strictest statutes of limitations for medical malpractice cases in the country. If you believe that a medical practitioner has caused you harm due to negligence or wrongdoing, you only have two years from when the injury occurred or from when you should have known about it to file a lawsuit against them.
If the harm of the malpractice is not readily known, such as in a lingering illness or infection, you may file beyond the two-year statute of limitation but not if four years have passed since the original occurrence. Additionally, even if fraud was intentionally used to hide the consequences of medical malpractice from you, the patient, the statute of limitations is just seven years. You must reach out to a medical attorney in Weston quickly to ensure that your rights are not forgotten.

When I say..you’ve reached the right people..ur lucky to be in contact with them!! Although they couldn’t help me with my case. Leading up to the decision Lori kept in contact, showed empathy, and was straightforward with all detail! Lori told me more than my own doctors or the hospital did. I have closure because of HER! So I still won! My case was complicated to move forward due to other reasons..but she ain’t never let me down when speaking to her! She speaks to you as if she knew you forever! I appreciate this firm so much because before they say NO..they try, they listen, and they put work in!!! Thank you guys so much for everything!- Adrian W.

From the first phone conversation with Lori, to the first time meeting with David and Jeff, all the way through and to the conclusion of my case, I felt as if these people truly cared about what happened to me. They didn’t just see a potential “case”. They were upset with my situation. They wanted to help. Through the years that this whole process takes, I have gotten to know them a bit better, and they have gotten to know me. I now consider them less “my legal team”, and more a part of my extended family, whether they realize it, or like it, or not. I so appreciate their kindness, genuine compassion, and “got my back” attitude. I hope you are never in a situation to need these folks, but if you ever are, I highly recommend talking to them and seeing if it’s a right fit for all.- Joel F.

I never thought that anything would ever happen to me that would lead me to post a review about this law office. Unfortunately, I was wrong and what happened was completely unimaginable so much so that police didn’t believe it at first. I was so confused and lost because it seemed that no one believed me. I googled malpractice in Florida and this was one of the offices that popped up. I called and spoke with Lori, the paralegal, and told her everything she believed me and Jeff and David did too. Due to what happened this wasn’t going to just be a civil lawsuit but a criminal one as well. They were a huge help in working with the police to get items that would prove my criminal case and would lead to felony arrest and jail time. They were there to talk to me all throughout the criminal case. Especially, Lori she truly cared and when I was all alone feeling that I wasn’t strong enough to get through this she was always there with good and caring advice. I was with this law firm for the past 3 years and Jeff and David are very compassionate and kind. From the attorneys to the paralegal they worked very hard and did so much that they have changed my life. If you are looking for an attorney office with experienced, knowledgeable, and compassionate staff. I promise they won’t let you down.- Tiffany S.

Providing Justice for All
Our malpractice lawyers in Weston accept all forms of medical malpractice cases in Weston. Medical practitioners are respected and revered for helping people recover from the worst of wounds or ailments, but they still must be held to the highest of standards. When someone's health is on the line, there must be no allowance of negligence, or else a devastating injury or complication can arise in virtually any situation.
What is Informed Consent?
Given that most medical procedures and treatments come with some risks, it is the responsibility of every doctor to provide their patients with information regarding the proposed treatment or procedure so a patient can make an informed decision about how they would like to proceed. This is called informed consent.
Without this essential information, a patient cannot truly make an informed decision. To obtain a patient’s informed consent, a doctor would generally require them to sign a consent form that states the risks associated with the procedure. However, a patient’s signature alone does not prove informed consent. It's crucial that a doctor fully discuss the procedure, its risks with the patient and for the patient to understand. Informed consent is not required in some cases.
These situations include:
- Medical emergencies
- Emotionally fragile patients
We Protect Your Future
Medical malpractice often causes more harm than the original condition that brought a patient to their doctor or clinic in the first place. With one critical mistake, such as an unnecessary surgery or unaddressed birth injury, the patient and their loved ones may suffer the consequences for years to come, if not permanently. When you seek compensation through a lawsuit with our Weston medical malpractice lawyers’ help, all avenues will be thoroughly reviewed to make certain that you get the money you need for today, tomorrow, and beyond. David Rash and Jeff Mueller are both committed to helping clients pave a way to a better future.
Rewarded compensation should provide for:
- Initial medical costs
- Lifetime rehabilitation or treatments
- Lost wages or reduced earning potential
- Reduced standard of living (emotional suffering)
