A Firm That Defends Medical Professionals And Institutions

Medical malpractice lawsuits are a constant source of concern for medical professionals and the institutions that employ them. When a lawsuit arises or potential claim looms on the horizon, the need for proactive legal action is paramount.

At Fulcher Hagler LLP, our attorneys are strong legal allies for doctors, nurses, dentists and other medical professionals facing malpractice suits in Georgia and South Carolina. We also represent hospitals, clinics, HMOs and other institutions. Since 1946, we have earned a reputation for trust, integrity and exceptional results serving clients in Augusta, Georgia, and throughout the Central Savannah River Area.

Building The Strongest Possible Defense

We will review the facts of your case to determine the best legal strategy to protect your livelihood, license and career. Arguments that support the defense of medical negligence claims include:

• There is no causation between the injury and the medical treatment.
• The patient suffered no significant harm as a result of the treatment.
• Expert testimony supporting the plaintiff’s claim is faulty.

We seek early dismissal of cases whenever possible. When that is not feasible, we seek to reduce damages to the greatest possible extent. Our approach to gathering evidence and testimony is painstaking. We leave no stone unturned when defending our clients against claims alleging surgical errors, misdiagnosis, medication errors, hospital negligence and other forms of medical malpractice.
