Medical Malpractice Attorney

[lonestar3 274]

Would be greatly appreciated if anyone has a recommendation on an attorney in the Central Texas area (the family is in San Antonio) that specializes in medical malpractice. 

Brief background: my aunt had replacement knee surgery and the hospital staff, admittedly, botched the wound care following the procedure. Now she's back in the hospital going through multiple surgeries trying to flush the necrotic wound two months later. Total shitshow of an operation. 

Any direction I can offer them at this point would be very helpful.

there’s a young 60 and old 60, just saying 

hope she heals up asap.

Yeah, best wishes to her for a speedy recovery.

The reality of this is that med mal suits in Texas are so difficult and expensive to prosecute that absent a painful early death or lifetime disability, with attendant loss of income and care cost, this probably isn't a very attractive case.

Appreciate the input. I'm purposefully being vague and wouldn't be encouraging legal pursuit unless there were a number of factors that I believe would make this an attractive case. 

Young 60. For the cause:

Yeah, this is the direction I was going in with the question regarding age.

On an old 60 you can get both framed in the same pic.

Glenn Cunningham is in San Antonio, is a past president of the Texas Trial Lawyers Association, and has a nurse on staff to review cases (who is also his wife). He'll almost certainly tell you there's no case there, but you should trust his take.
