Prescription Error Attorneys in New York City
Focused on Successful Results for Almost 40 Years
Medical professionals have always faced a challenge in consistently prescribing and dispensing the correct medications in the correct amount. Now, with shorter visits and smaller staffs, fewer people are often charged with providing drugs in less time. The result? An increased risk of injuries and wrongful death through medication errors.
At the New York City personal injury law firm of Rheingold, Valet, Rheingold, McCartney & Giuffra LLP we are highly qualified for and experienced in handling medication error legal claims. We have handled dozens of drug error claims, including claims resulting from:
- The dispensing of an incorrect drug that has a name similar to the correct one
- The misplacing of a decimal point (so that, for instance, a patient receives 12 grams of a drug instead of 1.2 grams)
- A doctor's poor handwriting
- Pharmacists' carelessness
- The incorrect transcription or interpretation of prescription information
