Pharmaceutical Malpractice Lawyers in Pittsburgh

Have you been injured by a prescribed medication? Has a loved one suffered brain damage or died as a result of a medication error? If you or a loved one has suffered as a result of a prescription mistake, you may have a claim for compensation. Our pharmacy error attorneys at Berger and Green pursue doctors, hospitals, nurses, pharmacies and other health care providers for medical malpractice, including pharmaceutical malpractice.

We advocate for prescription malpractice victims and their families. We use our experience and the law to hold responsible medical professionals accountable for the harm caused to patients. Contact Berger and Green to understand your rights to compensation.

Physicians, pharmacists, and other health care providers must abide by a standard of care (they must provide careful, informed, decisive care and must warn patients of known risks). Therefore, when a doctor or medical provider negligently prescribes the wrong medication, fails to warn the patient of known risks or makes other errors in judgment regarding a medication, the medical professional may be held accountable.

40+ years of experience from strong, knowledgeable, compassionate attorneys.
