Get Fair Compensation after You’re Harmed

You go to the doctor to get help, not to get hurt.

When medical professionals break that trust—and make mistakes that harm you—you should be compensated for your suffering.

A medical malpractice lawsuit can’t undo the trauma you experienced, but it can get you to steadier financial ground and a better future.

You might be surprised how often medical errors occur.

More than 250,000 people die every year from medical errors in the United States, according to a study by the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.

That makes medical errors the third-highest cause of death.

But if you’ve been hurt by a medical error, it feels intimidating to fight a big hospital for the compensation you deserve. Get the personal injury attorneys at Horenstein, Nicholson & Blumenthal to fight for you.

We work for everyday people in Ohio, not big health-care companies. From Cleveland to Cincinnati, we can help.

This is what we’re about: “Helping me, that’s HNB.”

    What Can You Get from a Medical Malpractice Case?

    In Ohio, you can get paid for three kinds of losses caused by a health-care provider’s negligence:

    • Compensatory damages: Specific costs that you can add up, such as medical bills and lost wages when you missed work because of medical errors
    •  Non-economic damages: Compensation for the misery you’ve endured, such as pain and suffering, which is hard measure in exact dollars
    •  Punitive damages: Payments meant to punish the medical provider for their harmful actions

    Ohio puts caps on how much you can collect for non-economic pain and suffering. You can get up to $350,000. Or if your injuries are among the most severe types, like a loss of limb, you can get as much as $500,000.

    Compensatory damages have no cap. Ohio caps punitive damages at two times whatever you receive for compensatory damages.

    You must meet deadlines to file a lawsuit. You should make your claim within one year from the time you realized you were injured, should have realized you were injured, or your relationship with your doctor ended.

    Proving your case means proving that the health-care professional acted with negligence.

    That takes evidence, legal knowledge and legwork. Let our Ohio medical malpractice lawyers handle that.
