Chicago Medical Malpractice Lawyers
read moreWe trust doctors and medical professionals with our lives. They, in turn, have an obligation to provide us, as patients, with a certain standard of care. When medical accidents occur, the results can be physically, emotionally, and financially devastating. Every day, we see the catastrophic, life-changing injuries that medical malpractice can inflict, be it from a missed or incorrect diagnosis, surgical error, or other form of substandard care. It is not unusual for medical negligence to lead to birth injuries, brain damage, or death.

Testimonials
read moreI am writing to thank you for helping our family during an extremely tough time. When Edward died of a misdiagnosed fungal infection we were all pretty shook up and it was hard to know what to do. Michael Cogan treated us with compassion and helped us understand what our options were. His experience and knowledge were obvious throughout the experience. He felt strongly that we should meet with a lawyer who specialized in structured settlements and before all was said and done both me and my son agreed to both a cash and structured settlement.
