Orthopedic Malpractice Lawyers in Detroit & Southfield Michigan
Orthopedic Specialists
Orthopedic specialists treat issues related to bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments and nerves, making diagnoses and repairing bone fractures, muscle tears, and nerve damage. They also surgically implant replacements for damaged hips and knees.

- Complications from various surgical procedures
- Blood and nerve vessel damage during surgery
- Failure to diagnose or properly treat bone fractures
- Misreading or failure to order an x-ray
- Failure to fit a patient with appropriate surgical screws or plates
- Anesthesia-related injuries
