Medical Malpractice Defense

Chapman And Associates is one of Michigan’s leading medical malpractice defense firms.   The firm's shareholder and principals are highly recognized within the legal community as leaders in medical malpractice defense and risk management. All of our attorneys are exceptionally skilled, dedicating over 75% of their case load to the defense of medical professionals and their practices.

Being sued for professional negligence creates professional, economic and personal hardship. The allegations are often personal in nature and commonly exaggerated to achieve the effect desired by plaintiff's counsel. Chapman And Associates is dedicated to aggressively representing our clients to prevent unfair and unjustified outcomes.

We represent medical professionals from physicians, physician's assistants, nurses, nurse practitioners and mental health professionals. Our primary goal is to protect the interests of our clients and limit the time and cost of litigation.

A vast majority of claims handled by Chapman And Associates are dismissed prior to trial in favor of our clients. Our dedication and superior understanding of medical malpractice defense allows us to achieve greater success.

Defending medical malpractice requires tremendous expertise in litigation and trial strategies and a thorough understating of the medical profession and the complexities of the law.  Our attorneys have developed an extensive understanding of how to manage medical malpractice claims successfully.  We meticulously prepare each case in anticipation of trial, using proven trial strategies, including the latest technology.  Our preparation for trial includes systematic and diligent analysis of all legal issues, successful record management and trial presentation strategies as well as deposition testimony, evidence, and the strengths and weaknesses of each witness.  Thoroughly understanding all facets of the complaint, including standard of care/practice, alleged breach, proximate cause, and damages, gives us the ability to take aggressive action and achieve desired results.

The stark reality is that we live in a litigious society where 50-65% of physicians will face a lawsuit during their career.  Although most medical malpractice lawsuits against physicians are found to be without merit, with only 7% of suits going to trial, the cost of representation can climb quickly. It is therefore important to consider your options and prepare you and your staff in order to limit the likelihood and cost of any potential litigation.  Most insurance carriers do not explain that you may choose which attorney/law firm defends you against a medical malpractice/professional liability lawsuit. Be sure you choose Chapman And Associates to aggressively defend you against such claims.
