Experience & Expertise

Medical negligence can be financially and emotionally devastating to individuals and families. Matonich Law advocates for clients who are harmed when health professionals fail to live up to the standard of care that is expected of them. This can include:

• Failure to diagnose
• Incorrect treatment or misdiagnosis
• Emergency room errors
• Surgical errors
• Hospital negligence
• Birth injuries/labor complications
• Improper use of medical devices or drugs

Matonich Law is focused on and only accepts cases involving serious injury and culpability. We work closely with the most qualified medical experts to evaluate each case and prepare for trial.

The complexity, expense, and duration of medical malpractice cases can be particularly challenging. That’s why it’s important to work with a firm that possesses the proven experience and resources to successfully pursue them.

Matonich Law also has the experience and expertise to take on complex litigation. We give a voice to those who might otherwise be drowned out by the vast financial and legal resources of major healthcare organizations. Moreover, our work helps to promote reasonable and safe conduct by holding companies accountable for any defects in their products.

Our goal is to ensure that our clients are adequately compensated for their losses.

Rural health equity

Julie, Morgan, and Sarah all grew up in greater Minnesota and they feel connected to the residents of small towns and rural communities. They strongly believe that people throughout the state have a right to expect medical care that meets the same standards as anywhere else in Minnesota or across the country. When rural medical providers fail to meet basic standards, the lawyers at Matonich law hold those providers accountable by filing lawsuits on behalf of their injured clients. This push for justice and accountability helps raise awareness and creates accountability for negligent medical treatment, hopefully preventing more patients from being injured by repeated mistakes.

Social discrimination in healthcare

Many Americans experience disparities in health outcomes based on factors including race, age, gender and financial status. Sometimes these disparities are a result of discrimination by medical providers. The lawyers at Matonich Law welcome all clients and want to hear their stories when they feel that discrimination contributed to a poor outcome in their cases.

Healthcare for incarcerated or detained youth

Alarmed by the impact of mass incarceration and immigration detention on the health and wellbeing of young people, Matonich Law will pursue cases where youth have been harmed by medical malpractice or the lack of access to necessary treatment or medication. Our focus in this area is on children and juveniles who don’t receive adequate medical care while they are deprived of their freedom.
