Where Science Meets Advocacy—Fighting for Patients Harmed by Medical Negligence
When we trust doctors, nurses, and other healthcare providers with our lives, we expect competence, care, and professionalism. But when a preventable medical error happens, the consequences can be devastating—physically, emotionally, and financially.
At Palmetto State Injury Lawyers, we stand with patients who have been harmed by medical negligence. With a background in biology, Dana is equipped to take on these complex cases with an uncommon perspective. She brings a distinct combination of legal skill and scientific knowledge to connect the science to the story – and fight for the justice you deserve.
What Is Medical Malpractice?
Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider fails to meet the accepted standard of care—the level of skill and attention a reasonably competent provider would have used in the same situation. When that failure causes harm, they can be held accountable.
Common types of medical malpractice include:
- Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis
- Surgical errors, like wrong-site surgery or leaving instruments inside the body
- Anesthesia mistakes, leading to serious injury or death
- Medication and prescription errors, including overdoses and incorrect dosing
- Birth injuries caused by negligent prenatal or delivery care
- Post-surgical infections or failure to diagnose complications
- Negligent post-operative care and follow-up
- Failure to obtain informed consent before procedures
These cases often involve complex medical records, expert testimony, and technical standards of care. That’s why you need an attorney who understands both the legal and scientific sides of the fight.
You Shouldn’t Have to Bear This Burden Alone
A medical mistake can derail your life—leaving you with permanent injuries, overwhelming medical bills, lost income, and emotional trauma. But you shouldn’t have to shoulder the consequences of someone else’s negligence.

- Past, present, and future medical expenses
- Lost wages and diminished earning capacity

We’ll work to build a case that fully reflects the depth of what you’ve lost—and what you need to move forward.
