Aggressively Advocating For Pharmacy Malpractice Victims 

The prescription that was supposed to heal you hurts you instead.

While the precise definition, scope, and legal consequences of medical malpractice depend on a variety of factors, this term generally refers to negligence committed by a licensed healthcare provider that causes injury to a patient or the death of a patient. Pharmacy malpractice refers to the negligent or reckless actions involving the prescription of medication.

If you have been injured by a medication mistake, you’re likely facing a long battle with insurance and the medical industry to get the money you need to heal. The last thing you need right now is to add even more stress to your recovery by trying to handle an insurance claim or legal battle on your own. That’s where we come in.

These attorneys are great and very professional, Lynn Walker and her team helped me get all the medical treatment I needed and the compensation I expected, and they got things done quickly.
I was treated very well by Jeffrey Kowalski…but Christopher Phillips (no relation) was my trooper anytime I had a issue or him just checking up on me was awesome and while they were handling my case I needed a lawyer and if it wasn’t for Christopher and how his firm treated me I would have went somewhere else but nope I stayed there and again thanks Chris and Jeff for everything
I had a great experience working with Attorney Nives Juric after being involved in a car accident. From the beginning, she made me feel at ease during a stressful time. She took the time to thoroughly explain my options, answered all my questions, and was always available to provide updates on my case. I am thankful she handled all the details throughout the process, allowing me to focus on healing. She and her team secured a very favorable settlement. I would definitely recommend Attorney Nives Juric if you're looking for a knowledgeable, dedicated, and trustworthy attorney.
I'm writing about the service I received from my attorney she and her colleagues were the best...from contacting telling me what's best for me....to explaining all the details I would choose her again and again thanks so very much 🙏🏾❤️
Wonderful staff!! Team made sure I was properly taken care of and answered all questions timely. Extreme thank you to Mr. Vocino and Mr. Marra for helping me!
Jeannette and Alejandra are the best! Like I can’t express how much gratitude I have for them. Thank you thank you AND THANK YOU. I recommend them to anyone who needs a lawyer. My mom recommended them to me and I will do the same for others. Again thank you so much! 🙂
I am so thankful that I had a great legal team to represent me in what I thought was a routine workers compensation case. I was up against one of the most wealthy and influential companies in the world but the were no match for my lawyer Ms Paula Molono, who went above and beyond the call of duty. And special thanks to her Paralegal Ms Tiffany Williams who had to talk me off the ledge for trying to give up the case. Montlick Attorneys are truly the best. Happy Holidays 🎄
I've had to use Montlick and Associates twice now, and each time I have been met with professionalism, empathy, and a hardworking team! Attorney Mike Moran does everything he can to maximize the amount of your settlement and leaves no stones unturned. His paralegal, Laura, is who I spoke to almost every week for over a year, and she is a gem! She was very helpful in making sure I was keeping track of all of the medical expenses I incurred, along with any symptoms from my accidents. She's professional, yet takes the right amount of time to address all of my questions, and she just really shows the kind of attitude it takes to deal with someone who is frustrated and in pain. Hopefully, you'll never need an accident attorney, but if you do, choose Montlick and ask for Mike Moran and Laura Gonzalez!
Sara Root and her team are the best at what they do both of my cases was handled very professional, outstanding,and with love I'm glad I had Sara Root and her team representing me thank you so much
Mike Moran and Mrs Laura Gonzalez is the best,they work so darn hard every day and they fight for what's right ,thank y'all for all that you do and for taking good and special care ,much appreciated to you and your staff ,
I was in a not at fault, roll over accident in December of last year. I felt early on that their Insurance company was not going to be cooperative in settling this claim fairly. I contacted Alyssa and that very day put her on retainer. She and her team immediately began handling the case and within the week their insurance company representative completely changed their tone and started giving me a fair shake. The case settled and I am very satisfied with its outcome. I paid for a car policy for 30 years and never had a claim and when I needed them, they wanted to play games. All I wanted was a fair treatment. Alyssa and her team made sure that happened! Alyssa, thank you so much for your help.

What Is Pharmacy Malpractice?

Pharmacy malpractice refers to many instances involving medication. This includes the failure to prescribe, administer, or dispense a medication, a patient receiving medication too early or too late, a patient receiving a drug not authorized for them, incorrect prescription dosage or preparation, administration errors, the failure to take into account a patient’s medical conditions or potential drug interactions, or medical personel not following proper dispensing/prescribing rules for a medication

These errors can take place in a hospital, doctor’s office, pharmacy and other medical spaces.

With nearly 7,000 prescription medications and over-the-counter drugs available in the United States, contributing to between 7-9,000 deaths related to medication errors each year.

Factors attributing to mishandling of medication

Many factors can cause errors in prescribing medications such as unrealistic workloads, distractions, poor penmanship, inadequate technician assistance, mistaking drugs with similar names and packaging

A study of 500 pharmacists done by The Pharmacists Mutual Insurance Company showed that 52% of errors were due to the wrong drug being dispensed, 27% were from the wrong strength being dispensed, and 7.4% were due to wrong directions being given.

Holding Negligent Pharmacists Responsible

We Don't Settle for Less. Neither Should You.

Contact Us

A pharmacist who officially fills a prescription may be responsible for incorrectly filling a prescription that causes injury or death because he or she breached the standard of care. Also, any technical or clerical co-workers of the pharmacist who failed to act in accordance with proper procedures potentially can be held liable. The pharmacy can be held liable for the harm caused by the employee in the course and scope of employment as well.

Recommendations for helping avoid pharmaceutical errors include:

  • Checking the prescription before leaving the doctor’s office
  • Making sure the writing is clear
  • Verbally confirming the drug and dosage schedule with the doctor/pharmacist and comparing it with the written prescription form
  • Read the label on the prescription once it’s filled
  • Ask the pharmacist to open the prescription container and confirm the medication inside is correct
  • Seek counseling from the pharmacist for any new medication to clarify any potential interactions with other drugs
  • Ensure that the pharmacist has reviewed the prescription and dispensing of the drug
