Medical Malpractice Claims in Dallas
Dallas County — several major hospital systems inside one city, and a public hospital that takes what the others cannot.
Parkland Memorial is the county's public hospital, UT Southwestern is an academic medical centre, and Baylor University Medical Center and Children's Health Dallas carry much of the remaining load. A metroplex with this many large systems produces a particular pattern: patients move between them. Someone can be seen at one hospital, referred to a physician group affiliated with another, and admitted somewhere else again — with the chart splitting at each step. What the first team knew, what was communicated, and what the receiving team was told are separate questions with separate answers, and the answers do not sit in one file.
Dallas is 240 miles north, and it is not short of large law firms. The question worth asking is not how big a firm is but how often it does this specific work: obtaining the complete hospital record, finding a qualified physician to review the care, and meeting the Texas procedural requirements on time. That is the whole of our practice rather than one department inside it.

Common Questions
Is it worth suing for medical malpractice?
That depends on what the medical records show and what the injury has cost. A review asks whether the care fell below the accepted standard, whether that is connected to the harm, and what the ongoing needs are. Having the records reviewed costs a family nothing and does not commit them to filing anything.
What are examples of medical negligence?
The categories that come up most often are a missed or delayed diagnosis, a surgical error, a medication mistake, a failure to monitor a patient whose condition was changing, and failures during labor and delivery. Whether any of them amounts to negligence in a particular case is a question for qualified expert review of the complete records.
How much does a medical malpractice lawyer cost?
Thomas & Wan works on a contingency fee: there is no fee unless there is a recovery. The initial case review is free, and families are not asked to pay anything up front.
How difficult is it to sue for malpractice in Texas?
Texas applies strict procedural requirements to medical malpractice claims, including a qualified expert report on a strict statutory timeline. That is why these cases are usually handled by firms that focus on them, and why gathering the records early matters.
How long do I have to bring a claim?
A strict statutory timeline applies in Texas, and some circumstances can change it. Because records become harder to assemble as time passes, the safest course is to have the file reviewed early rather than wait.
Medical Records Do Not Get Easier to Read With Time
A medical malpractice case is built out of records, and the people who wrote them. Charts get archived, staff move on, and memories of a single shift fade. Texas also applies a strict statutory timeline to these claims, and meeting it requires a qualified expert to review the care first.
That is the real reason to call early — not because a deadline is close, but because the work that decides whether you have a case takes time to do properly.
Texas has strict deadlines to file — don't wait.
