Medical Malpractice Lawyer St. Augustine | The McLeod Firm

For many years, the federal government asserted a very conservative 98,000 Americans were killed each year from preventable medical errors. New studies are finding that many experts know to be true – the number is actually much, much higher. In fact, around 440,000 Americans are killed annually due to medical malpractice, behind heart disease, which is the first, and cancer, which is second.

If you were injured by a doctor, nurse, pharmacist, chiropractor, or other health care provider, you want answers and you need financial compensation. At The McLeod Firm, in St. Augustine, Florida, our medical malpractice attorneys are here to help. (904) 471-5007
