A Tradition of Excellence

For over half a century, Malone Law has successfully represented clients in catastrophic personal injury cases.

Physician Error

First do no harm — the Hippocratic Oath — is the guiding principle for physicians and other health care providers. Despite this guiding principle, mistakes still happen in clinics and hospitals across the nation and patients are harmed. In fact, recent studies suggest that medical errors are now the third leading cause of death in America.

If you or a loved one has been injured due to the negligence of a physician, you may have a claim to recover damages for your harm and losses. At Malone Law, we have vigilantly pursued justice for injured patients for over 50 years. Our team of experienced attorneys knows how to successfully pursue claims against negligent physicians — and help you put your life back together.

Proving Physician Negligence

A doctor’s mistake doesn’t necessarily mean that medical malpractice has occurred. Through careful investigation and years of experience, our dedicated lawyers can determine whether you have a valid claim for professional negligence, which requires:

  • Doctor-patient relationship — The first element of proving a physician engaged in professional negligence is establishing that a patient-physician relationship existed between the patient and the doctor who acted negligently.
  • Duty of care — Doctors have a duty to follow generally accepted medical guidelines and procedures and are bound to provide patients with a certain standard of care — which is usually defined as the level of care other reasonable and cautious doctors would provide under similar conditions.
  • Breach of duty — A doctor who fails to exercise reasonable care, or treats a patient’s injury, condition or illness differently than another doctor would, has breached that duty of care.
  • Injury — The patient suffered an injury as a proximate result of the doctor’s breach of his or her duty of care.
  • Damages — The patient suffered damages — financial or otherwise — because of the injury, which was caused by the doctor’s breach of the duty of care.

We Understand

At Malone Law, we understand how devastating it is to suffer an injury due to physician errors. We understand how draining these types of injuries are on a victim’s physical, emotional and financial condition. And we understand how to successfully prosecute cases involving doctors who commit professional negligence. We can help you with cases involving:

  • Misdiagnosis and failure to diagnose
  • Treatment plan errors
  • Prescription, medication and dosage mistakes
  • Unnecessary treatments and procedures
  • Infections
  • Hospital errors

By skillfully handling complex cases, the attorneys at Malone Law have earned a reputation for excellence — a reputation that has become their tradition steeped in obtaining just compensation for those we are privileged to represent.

Holding Wrongdoers Responsible

Malone Law is known for its willingness to take cases to trial when defendants refuse to accept responsibility for their actions — particularly in situations where death or devastating injuries have been caused by careless commercial trucking companies, sloppy health care and manufacturers of defective products. Tommy secured one of the first verdicts over a million dollars in Georgia history — a $1.2 million verdict in a 1982 jury trial against a trucking company involving the needless death of a 7-year-old girl. Throughout his career, Tommy continued achieving record verdicts, including a recent verdict of over $49 million against two careless trucking companies for causing a severe brain injury to a pre-med college student.

Likewise, Adam has continued this tradition and has broken his father's record verdict in their hometown of Albany with a $24.5 million verdict in a medical negligence case for a 14-year-old football player.

Making Our Hospitals & Roads Safer

In addition to the many multimillion-dollar recoveries we at Malone Law have obtained for our clients, we take pride in our ability to drive positive change in our community.

An inevitable result of many of the verdicts and settlements we obtain is system change to correct their actions to prevent similar harm from occurring to others in the future.

Our attorneys and staff work diligently to make life better for our clients as well as those in our community.

"Together we've been able to not only make a difference for our clients," says Adam, "but also do our part in helping to make roadways and hospitals safer for everyone."
