Austin Medical Malpractice Lawyers

Top Rated Medical Negligence Attorneys in Austin, TX

Were You or a Loved One Injured by a Negligent Medical Mistake in Austin?

If you or someone you love has been injured by a medical mistake, you need a law firm that you can depend on. Hospitals, doctors, nurses, and insurance companies have a wide range of resources at their disposal, including high-dollar defense lawyers on their side who specialize in personal injury law defense. Medical malpractice victims commonly have cases where Texas law favors doctors and hospitals. In Texas, powerful medical lobbyists have made it expensive and difficult for patients to bring suit for medical negligence claims against healthcare providers. As a result, only a handful of personal injury firms and injury lawyers still handle medical malpractice cases at all.

At Hastings Law Firm our team of Texas medical injury attorneys and legal staff fight against these odds every day to obtain the justice and compensation our clients deserve. Representation by the Hastings Law Firm will provide you with an experienced and confident staff ready to go toe-to-toe with medical professionals to help you win your case. Whether your injury was due to a surgical error, misdiagnosis, defective medical product, complications from a medication, or other serious personal injury, our law offices can help.

Lawsuits involving medical neglect are notoriously complex. We have represented clients in a myriad of matters in medical malpractice including obstetrics and pediatrics, gynecology, cardiology, neurosurgery, orthopedics, infectious diseases, emergency room care, nursing home abuse and more.

Texas medical malpractice laws require evidence of negligence or a sub-standard quality of care be present to warrant a malpractice claim, so not all accidents or negative outcomes may be considered a legal issue – despite how severe.

No Upfront Cost to Work With Our Austin Texas Medical Malpractice Law Firm

A close attorney-client relationship is necessary for us to help our clients pursue compensation that secures their futures. Medical lawyer Tommy Hastings, our founder, does not believe that a lawyer should remain emotionally uninvolved during a case, but instead, a lawyer should channel the experience of their client and fight as if it were their own battle. We fight for amounts that will cover medical expenses, future treatments, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more. We interact with insurance, for our clients, so our clients can focus on their recovery.

Throughout every step of the case, we status with our clients, and explain what to expect. We make the legal process as comfortable as we can for our clients so that they are in a better position to make informed decisions about their future. At Hastings Law Firm we work closely with our clients to build a case and seek results to meet their unique and individual needs.

Common Medical Malpractice Questions

Can I Pursue a Medical Malpractice Claim If I Have Minor Injuries?

In short, no. Texas law has made medical malpractice cases very difficult and expensive to litigate and the caps on compensation mean that it can often cost more to pursue a case than you can receive in damages. These cases also require costly expert review and testimony from medical professionals and many hours of deposition. Since personal injury attorneys are paid on a contingency fee basis, they simply cannot accept cases that do not involve serious injuries.

Can I Claim Damages if a Family Member has Died from Medical Malpractice?

If a patient died as a result of medical malpractice in Austin, the patient’s heirs may recover for 1) damages that occurred from the time of the malpractice up until the patient’s death, and 2) the family’s future economic loss due to the patient’s death.

Tommy is a great guy, genuinely concerned about his clients. This is evident in not only how he runs his firm but the fact that he chose to focus on medmal, something other attorneys have abandoned. If you’re looking for someone that will fight for you tooth and nail, he’s your man.

Tommy Hastings and his staff provided a much needed voice for us during our crisis. His attention to detail went beyond the scope of simply practicing law. He is honest, informative, pragmatic and communicated well with us from start to finish. In a sea full of competing attorneys, Tommy has cast a reputation for himself as the very best. I highly recommend his services.

I was represented better than I could have ever imagined. My needs were put first and was treated as a friend rather than a number.

I can’t say enough great things about this law firm. The staff was friendly and courteous every step of the way. They kept me informed and explained all of my options. Tommy was amazing to work with and I couldn’t be more satisfied with my outcome. If I could give him 10 stars, I would. If you don’t go with Hastings, you are doing yourself a disservice. Highly recommend.

I would highly recommend Tommy and his law firm. He represented us in a case where a simple surgery left my mother permanently disabled. His staff was very professional and diligent and kept me well informed throughout the case. In the end we are happy with the settlement she received and feel lucky to have had Tommy as our attorney.

Earica Robert

My brother had an unnecessary surgery which left him with severe neurological issues. We called several attorneys but chose Hastings because of their focus on cases like this. While the case is still pending, we’ve already received a settlement offer that was very close to what we were looking for. Many thanks go out to Tommy and his great team!

Devin Schumacher

We’re blessed to have found the Hastings law firm. Tommy and his firm were outstanding! All the staff were very responsive, professional, and helpful with any questions we had about our case. Their entire staff went above and beyond to keep us updated and most of all, calm. My family feels as though we have been made (mostly) whole again. Thank you both for your hard work.
