Medical Malpractice

We Represent the Victims of Medical Malpractice Throughout West Tennessee

At Morton & Germany, PLLC, our medical malpractice team is headed by attorney Gary K. Morrell. For more than 30 years, Mr. Morrell has been helping patients and the families of patients in Memphis who have been injured as a result of medical negligence. With years of experience, a keen understanding of the legal and medical issues that factor into these cases, as well as an unwavering commitment to helping clients achieve full and just compensation, Mr. Morrell and the rest of our team will provide you with the support and representation necessary to hold negligent health care providers accountable and help you recover.

The Commitment and Skill to Help the Victims of Medical Malpractice

When you seek medical attention, you are putting your trust in the doctors, nurses and other health care professionals providing treatment. Although most medical professionals are capable and attentive, there are instances where negligence and avoidable mistakes on the part of medical professionals can inflict serious injuries or other complications on patients.

Mr. Morrell has obtained seven-figure jury verdicts and settlement recoveries for clients who have sustained damages as the result of hospital malpractice by doctors, nurses, specialists or other health care professionals. These cases range from serious brain injuries, birth defects or wrongful death stemming from failing to treat or properly diagnose a patient.

A few examples of the types of cases Mr. Morrell has handled and recovered seven-figure settlements and awards include:

Brain damage and wrongful death from failing to relieve excessive intracranial pressure following brain surgery

Wrongful death for failing to diagnose/treat cervical cancer in timely manner

Brain damage from an anesthesiologist's premature extubation of patient

Wrongful death for failing to diagnose/treat skin cancer in a timely manner

Brain damage from failing to treat postoperative bleeding in timely manner

Mr. Morrell’s record of success speaks to his skill and experience in handling serious medical malpractice cases. He has recovered approximately $50 million for parties injured as a result of medical malpractice and has been recognized by his peers with an AV peer review rating by Martindale-Hubbell Legal Directory* in each edition from 1991 through the present date. He has been recognized by being listed in Mid-South Super Lawyers magazine for his work in the area of medical malpractice and was named Best Lawyers’ 2012 Memphis Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiffs’ Lawyer of the Year. Mr. Morrell is also a “Fellow” of the American College of Trial Lawyers. (The American College of Trial Lawyers is composed of the best of the trial bar from the United States and Canada, and is widely considered to be the premier professional trial organization in America.).

More than just recoveries and recognitions, the testimonials of our current and former clients speak to the personalized service that defines our practice. We encourage you to speak with us and learn how we can represent you and your family.
