Infectious Disease Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice can be caused by a failure to diagnose an infectious disease. Doctors and other medical providers have unprecedented ability to recognize and treat the overwhelming majority of infectious diseases. In many cases, treatment of an infectious disease is effective in limiting the duration and severity of an illness, with the result that the patient eventually gets better. However, when an infectious disease is not diagnosed, the infection festers, which can lead to prolonged illness and in some cases even death.
Newborn babies are especially vulnerable to infection because they have not yet built up immunities to many infectious diseases. This is especially true during childbirth when an infection can easily be passed from the mother to the baby. Modern medicine has given us the knowledge and ability to check the mother for infections and to treat her infectious disease prior to childbirth. Failure to check and treat an infectious disease in these circumstances is often a clear-cut example of medical malpractice.
Other examples of frequent medical malpractice include failing to monitor for infectious diseases following surgery and failing to prescribe or administer the correct antibiotics when an infectious disease is diagnosed.

Testimonials
The insurance company refused to pay my benefits. Mr. Buckfire filed a lawsuit against them and made them pay every penny that they owed... Every time I see my doctor, I thank her again for the referral to Buckfire & Buckfire.

Because of his efforts, we proved that the other driver was at fault and the driver's insurance company paid a significant settlement for our injury claims... Hiring his firm to represent my son and myself was the best decision I could have possibly made. Many thanks for the great work.

My husband died when a truck left the roadway and struck him. He was off the shoulder of the roadway helping another motorist pull his car out of a snow bank The work that they did helped me settle my Michigan wrongful death case for $1,600,000.00. Their knowledge of law was second to none and they hired the best experts to prove my case.
