Medical Malpractice Attorney
Norfolk, Newport News, and Roanoke, Virginia
When we are injured or ill, we put our health and our lives into the hands of medical professionals. We believe our doctors and nurses will exercise only the highest standards of care when diagnosing and treating our family members and us. We trust them to do what is in our best interest.
The fact is, doctors and nurses can and do make mistakes. In fact, medical mistakes kill and injured almost 100,000 people a year! That's even more people than are injured in car accidents each year. Our job at Kalfus & Nachman, Attorneys at Law is to hold these medical professionals accountable for their actions.
Some common types of medical malpractice claims include:
When death results after a medical professional’s mistake, a wrongful death lawsuit can be filed. If you or a family member has suffered injury or death due to a medical mistake, chances are this information will go undisclosed unless you are aggressive with your suspicions and hire legal help to investigate the situation.

Find out what are the best questions to ask your medical malpractice attorney.
Most people are aware that doctors work excessive hours, going without sleep for large blocks of time at a stretch, and working a high number of hours within each week. Sometimes, doctors are ‘on-call’, a continuous hospital shift where the physician typically gets no opportunity to rest for many hours. One survey reported 25% of physicians were on-call for over 80 hours per week. Sleep deprivation is a serious problem despite new regulations restricting the number of hours a doctor can work without sleep.
