Prescription medications can help us recover from illnesses, maintain our current health status, or alleviate debilitating pain. When prescribed by health professionals, we trust that they have reviewed our medical history, understand our medication options, how the medication prescribed may interact with other medications, and have chosen appropriately. Dosage must be correct and instructions for use provided. When this process breaks down by doctors and pharmacists resulting in patient harm, it may be a form of negligence which entitles you to a claim for full and fair compensation.
At Grossman Green PLLC, we can help you hold these medical professionals accountable for their errors. Our capable and compassionate team of Louisville medication and pharmacy error attorneys are well-equipped to build your claim and fight for what you need and deserve at the settlement table or in court.
