Over
the years, the Keenan Law Firm has handled virtually all types
of medical malpractice and negligence cases with its primary
emphasis on obstetrical, neonatal, and pediatric negligence.
|
Don
Keenan was chosen by the National Law Journal in April of 1997
as one of the top three medical malpractice attorneys in the
country. As noted in that publication:
|
|
"Mr.
Keenan has served as a medical malpractice attorney and has
tried medical malpractice cases in 14 states and tried or
settled over 40 obstetrical, neonatal, and pediatric cases
for over $1,000,000 dollars. Most noted for his innovative
trial techniques, he is reportedly the first trial lawyer
to use focus groups and computer generated medical illustration
exhibits in medical malpractice cases."

A
mistake by a health care professional, a doctor or nurse, dentist,
technician, hospital worker, or hospital which causes injury
or death is commonly referred to as a medical malpractice or
medical negligence claim.
|
| Medical
malpractice and negligence cases are time consuming and expensive
to litigate. It is important to realize that not all unfortunate
medical situations are actually the result of medical negligence.
Further, not all medical mistakes cause injury. Therefore, a
high percentage of cases that come under the review of a medical
malpractice attorney by the Keenan Law Firm are deemed to be
non-meritorious. |

The firm may work many hours and can invest considerable funds
into a potential case, only to find after investigation that
it is non-meritorious.
In this instance, the client owes the firm nothing.

| As
an experienced medical malpractice attorney, Mr. Keenan has
lectured on issues of medical negligence throughout the United
States, and in Europe and Australia. He has instructed and given
presentations on medical malpractice at medical schools and
national medical meetings. |
