Did a Medical Mistake Cause Injury or Death?
Successful Baltimore Medical Malpractice Attorneys
A grave illness goes undiagnosed. A patient gets the wrong medication. A surgeon botches an operation. The negligence of a doctor, nurse or other medical professional can lead to serious injury, permanent disability or even death. And they should be held accountable.

Medical malpractice is difficult to prove, but the Baltimore law firm of Baroody & O'Toole has a successful record in this complex litigation. Our firm has won jury verdicts and negotiated settlements in a range of medical negligence cases:
- Failure to diagnose serious disease
- Misdiagnosis leading to harmful treatment or delayed intervention
- Surgical errors and post-surgical infections
- Prescription and medication errors
- Birth injury
- Failure to obtain informed consent
- Failure to monitor patients
We represent people throughout the Baltimore area in medical malpractice lawsuits. Our firm has held doctors, nurses and nurse practitioners, hospitals, nursing homes and other medical providers responsible for their negligence in preventable injuries:
— A patient died of complications when medical staff failed to administer anti-seizure medication. We prevailed in a wrongful death claim brought by the victim's mother.
— A surgeon punctured his patient's colon during a procedure on her uterus. We recovered compensation for the life-threatening after-effects.
— We have handled several cases of undiagnosed compartment syndrome, a swelling of muscle tissue that can cause permanent nerve damage. In one case, a car accident victim was treated by the doctor for an arm fracture. Because the compartment injury was not treated, he has lost all use of the limb.
Aggressive Pursuit of Full Compensation
Medical providers and their insurance companies typically fight hard to contest medical malpractice claims. These cases commonly are decided at trial. Our lawyers prepare a compelling case for the jury, using advanced technology. We retain top medical experts who can attest that the quality of care deviated from professional medical standards.
Baroody & O'Toole bears the considerable expense of bringing a malpractice suit. We do not collect attorney fees or recoup this investment unless we win compensation in your case.
