Warrensburg Medical Malpractice Attorneys
Safeguard Your Quality of Life with Our Trial-Tested Legal team
Medical professionals are required to provide their patients with exceptional services and a reasonable standard of care. When hospitals and health clinics are understaffed, exhausted and overworked medical staffers are forced to cycle through their patients as quickly as possible. Consequently, these doctors, surgeons, and nurses are incapable of providing each patient with the level of attention and care their situations warrant. This can lead to devastating medical complications and otherwise preventable fatalities.
The physical and psychological repercussions of a medical malpractice injury can have a lasting impact on your future. If you’re ready to file a medical malpractice claim, you’re going to need the services of a legal representative with a comprehensive understanding of the law and a thorough knowledge of medical injuries. If you’ve been injured by the actions of a negligent medical professional, contact the Warrensburg medical malpractice lawyers at Kempton & Russell. Our team has been providing legal guidance since 1951 and has recovered tens of millions of dollars on behalf of our clients.

Recognizing Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice occurs when a medical professional’s negligent actions (or inactions) cause injury to a patient. Per the statute of limitations in Missouri, a plaintiff has 2 years to file a claim and seek reparations for an injury. If you pass the statute of limitations, the court may refuse to hear your case. However, there are few exceptions, such as the discovery rule, so it’s important to discuss your specific situation with an attorney before taking legal action.
Examples of medical malpractice include:
- Prescription errors
- Anesthesia injuries
- Surgical errors
- Post-surgical infections
- Birth injuries
- Misdiagnosis
- Delayed diagnosis
- Incorrect diagnosis
- Lack of informed consent
- Failure to treat a condition
At Kempton & Russell, our medical malpractice lawyers know that medical errors and acts of negligence can take various forms. You can rely on our legal team to thoroughly investigate your case and consult with our trusted network of medical specialists to identify a liable party. Our medical specialists can also help us prove that the negligent healthcare provider caused your injury by failing to deliver treatment that a “reasonably prudent and careful health care provider would have under similar circumstances” (Missouri Revised Statutes section 538.225).
