Personal Attention and a Collaborative Defense
McNeal Schick is completely devoted to insurance defense matters, including professional malpractice defense. We are not just an insurance defense department within a larger firm. Insurance defense matters are all we handle, and we do them well. As a smaller firm, we can guarantee to our clients that they will work directly with the attorney assigned to their case. Although we have a staff of dedicated paralegals and legal assistants who assist our attorneys every step of the way, we understand the importance to our clients of regular contact with their attorney. We believe in keeping our clients well informed throughout the entire claims and litigation process.
We Know the Standards of Care for Many of the Professions
Our attorneys have successfully defended professional liability cases in many of the professions, and we use the knowledge gained on each previous case to get positive results for future clients. We competently handle the following types of malpractice cases:
- Medical malpractice cases against doctors or nurses charged with erroneous diagnosis or treatment; substandard care, treatment or surgery; gross negligence; lack of informed consent; and breach of doctor-patient confidentiality
- Dental malpractice cases against dentists or dental technicians charged with false diagnosis or treatment; substandard treatment, care of surgery; gross negligence; and lack of informed consent
- Accountant malpractice cases against certified personal accountants for late filing; providing incorrect tax advice; failing to provide adequate tax advice; or improper bookkeeping practices
- Construction malpractice cases against architects, engineers, hydrologists and other construction professionals - these cases often arise in conjunction with a broader construction defect claim
- Attorney malpractice cases against lawyers and law firms for improper use of client funds; failure to adequately represent the client; breach of lawyer-client confidentiality
- Nursing home negligence cases against nursing homes and assisted living facilities when patients or residents are injured
