Anesthesia Errors Happen—We Can Help

Anesthesia errors often result from avoidable mistakes, such as poor monitoring, communication breakdowns, or incorrect dosages. Some of the most common causes of anesthesia-related injuries include:

  • Administering the wrong dosage of anesthesia
  • Failure to monitor vital signs
  • Delayed administration of anesthesia
  • Incorrect intubation
  • Use of defective medical equipment
  • Allergic reactions due to failure to review patient history
  • Communication errors between medical professionals
  • Prolonged anesthesia leading to nerve damage or brain injury

If something felt wrong during or after your procedure, you're not alone—and we want you to get the answers you seek. Our attorneys can help uncover what happened and whether elements of negligence played a role. This is key when assessing liability in medical malpractice claims.

    We Help You Move Forward

    Experiencing a medical injury is overwhelming, especially when you’re still recovering. We know how important it is to feel supported and informed throughout the legal process. When you work with our team, we will:

    • Assess your case to determine if the anesthesia error meets medical malpractice criteria
    • Advise on legal processes, including obtaining an Affidavit of Merit and complying with Ohio's statute of limitations
    • Consult medical experts to review procedures and identify deviations from standard care
    • Calculate the full extent of your damages to seek fair compensation
    • Negotiate with your anesthesiologist's insurer for a reasonable settlement
    • Represent you in court if necessary

    We approach every case with care, compassion, and the commitment it takes to help you find meaningful relief.

    Injuries Caused by Anesthesia Errors

    Anesthesia errors can cause a wide range of injuries, from minor complications to permanent disabilities and death. Common anesthesia-related injuries include:

    • Brain damage
    • Nerve damage
    • Cardiovascular complications
    • Respiratory issues
    • Allergic reactions
    • Stroke
    • Coma
    • Death

    According to an NIH study, anesthesia injuries are primarily caused by human error, improper use, or a combination of both. Our lawyers will evaluate your injury and associated complications to determine appropriate compensation.

    How We Value Your Case

    • Nature of injuries: Immediate and long-term physical/mental impacts
    • Medical costs: Hospitalization, surgeries, medications, therapy, and future treatments
    • Lost wages: Current and projected future income loss
    • Emotional impact: Distress and diminished quality of life
    • Permanent injuries: Expert analysis of future consequences

    We thoroughly document all factors through medical records, expert testimony, and financial analysis to build the strongest case for maximum compensation. Our experienced team has a proven track record of negotiating fair settlements that cover both current and future needs.
