- Lost wages

The Healthcare Industry Is Booming in Lakeland, FL
There are more than a dozen nursing homes and assisted living facilities in Lakeland. In addition, the city has a number of hospitals, rehab facilities, pharmacies, medical centers, and private practitioners here to serve the 110,000 residents of Lakeland.
Although most doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals do their best to provide a good standard of care, medical negligence does occur. When this puts the health and safety of a patient at risk and causes injury, victims have a right to file a medical malpractice claim. This very specific type of personal injury case calls for the help of a firm with a track record of success in helping victims collect the restitution they deserve.

"Mr. Moody came highly recommended by personal friends who are attorneys that practice in other areas... From the initial consultation we felt as if we were part of the family. Every detail was explained up front and throughout the entire process the staff was quick to respond to questions and there were many. Through their effort we received a fair settlement that was much greater than the lowball offer the insurance company initially presented which didnt even cover the associated medical bills." BIll Moffatt
