Fennemore Craig’s representation of hospitals and other health-care providers throughout Arizona encompasses decades of experience defending claims of medical negligence and matters involving the peer review and staff privileges processes. Several of the attorneys and paralegals in the medical negligence group are former medical professionals.

The firm’s clients range from large health care systems to small community hospitals and non-profit entities providing health care services. Case experience is extensive, involving such areas as obstetrics, neonatology, emergency room, psychiatry, surgery, neurology, cardiology, wrongful death and many other areas. Our attorneys also defend the confidentiality of physician applications for privileges and related materials, peer-review committee minutes and hospital risk management processes, and the scope of the physician-patient privilege.

In addition to litigation, members of the medical negligence group provide seminars and in-service conferences on medical-legal issues to nurses, administrators and physicians.

Our attorneys also represent physicians before the Arizona Board of Medical Examiners and the Arizona Board of Osteopathic Examiners, chiropractors before the Board of Chiropractic Examiners, and nurses before the Arizona State Board of Nursing regarding licensure and competency issues. [LESS]
