Misdiagnosis/Delayed Diagnosis
Misdiagnosis can happen for many reasons. Sometimes doctors fail to spend the time they should with a patient. Other times, a doctor's medical knowledge has become outdated. He or she may have failed to refer out a case to a specialist instead of treating a patient that he or she is not qualified to treat.
Regardless of how the misdiagnosis occurred, if medical malpractice is involved, talking with an attorney is the best way to protect your rights. At The Donahey Law Firm, with locations in Columbus and throughout central Ohio, we have been serving injury victims for more than 40 years. Our experienced Columbus misdiagnosis attorneys know what actions to take in order to put forward a strong case in your medical malpractice case.
We represent patients whose lives have been affected by the misdiagnosis or the delayed diagnosis of a medical condition, including the ones listed below:

Choose a Law Firm With the Resources for Success
Medical misdiagnosis cases, like other medical malpractice cases, are challenging to win. They require extensive preparation and can continue on for years before going to trial. Even with the best attorneys, the amount of discovery required, the expenses and the resources needed for a medical malpractice case are often extensive.
So, when you are choosing a law firm to represent you in a medical malpractice case, it is critical that you choose one with the resources to do the job well. Many law firms do not have these resources. They may actually settle your case before trial or refer it out to other lawyers, just to avoid the costs involved.
The Donahey Law Firm does neither of these things. We have the resources necessary to thoroughly prepare your medical malpractice claim for trial. Whether your misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis case involves consulting with knowledgeable experts in the state of Ohio or across the country, reviewing extensive documents, interviewing witnesses and conducting legal research, we are ready to proceed forcefully and skillfully.
If you are considering turning to us for representation in a medical malpractice case, you should know that we take cases on a contingency fee basis. This means that we advance all expenses associated with your case. If you do not win compensation, you owe us no attorney fees. We only get reimbursed if there is a recovery in your case.
