Medical Malpractice

Hawaii Medical Malpractice Lawyer

Helping you find comfort during a difficult time...caring about the effect medical malpractice injuries have on your life

Though the majority of health care providers give adequate, if not excellent, care to their patients, medical malpractice in the United States has reached epidemic proportions. When proper medical guidelines are not followed, physician and nurse errors can lead to the injury or death of your infant or loved one. Hawaii medical malpractice lawyer Collin M. (Marty) Fritz and his team of experienced attorneys and staff understand that nothing can completely compensate the pain that negligent medical professionals can cause you and your loved ones. However, the attorneys of Trecker & Fritz will see that justice is served. They will work hard to make sure you are consoled as much as you possibly could be. Please contact us at our Honolulu, Hawaii, office.

The effects of medical malpractice last a lifetime - and are far-reaching. They affect friends and family in ways that are impossible to quantify. At Trecker & Fritz, we represent individuals and their families whose doctor or nurse has breached the standard of care in diagnosing or treating medical conditions. We have years of experience in cases such as:

  • Birth-related injuries resulting in cerebral palsy and erb's palsy
  • Wrongful death
  • Emergency room malpractice
  • Failure to properly diagnose cancer or other diseases
  • Nursing malpractice
  • Lack of proper informed consent
  • Surgical errors or foreign objects left in patients
  • Incorrect administration of medication
  • Medical device failure
  • Prescription errors or incorrect dosage

We have the reputation, resources, and experience to handle even the most complex medical malpractice claims successfully. During 2002, Trecker & Fritz settled the largest ($3.6 million) pretrial claim for medical malpractice against the Federal government in the history of the district of Hawaii providing top quality lifetime care for our severely injured client. While we cannot take away your pain, we are committed to obtaining the maximum compensation available to you if a medical malpractice has occurred. To discuss your case with an experienced medical malpractice attorney, please contact us at our Honolulu, Hawaii, office.

"Both my wife and I have Doctorates. I work with the Department of Defense. When my wife was improperly treated by a doctor and suffered devastating injuries, we needed someone with experience and skill to help us pursue our claim. I went to my son who was a lawyer who represents doctors in malpractice cases. He found Trecker & Fritz. They were creative, intelligent and highly professional in obtaining a very good result for us."

"My original lawyer wanted me to settle for the first offer from the insurance company. It was really a low offer since I had surgery and was unable to go back to my old job. Fortunately, Trecker & Fritz was willing to take over my case. I was really happy with the result and their handling of my case."
