Patty and Clark Raymond deeply believe that their work achieves two goals:
- 1) to obtain justice for their clients
- 2) to improve medical, hospital and nursing home care in the future.
Patty Raymond and Clark Raymond have each practiced law for over twenty years. Their goal is to focus their time, effort and talent on great medical malpractice and nursing home neglect claims. The firm is highly selective and fully investigates claims before lawsuits are filed.
As experienced medical malpractice attorneys, Patty Raymond and Clark Raymond have successfully prosecuted cases involving cerebral palsy, brain damage, Erb’s palsy, medication errors (especially anticoagulants like Coumadin), Emergency Room Misdiagnosis (especially stroke, heart attack and aneurysm), development of bedsores, post surgical infection, and many other areas. Critical to their success is Patty Raymond and Clark Raymond have close working relationships with accomplished and honest expert witnesses, including board certified physicians and surgeons, nurses, and nursing home administrators.
Because of Patty Raymond’s nursing experience, excellent medical knowledge, and working relationships with doctors and nurses of different specialities, the Raymonds know and respect good quality medical and nursing care. While good doctors and nurses can make mistakes, the Raymonds also understand that there are many bad hospitals and sloppy doctors. Bringing these bad apples to justice, however, can be difficult, and Patty Raymond and Clark Raymond are skilled at exposing frivolous defenses, altered medical records and dishonest testimony.
Raymond & Raymond, Ltd. also represents nursing home residents and their families in neglect cases against nursing homes. Illinois nursing homes promise the residents, their families and the Federal and State governments that they will not neglect our elderly, who are in nursing homes because they need care and attention. Neglect can cause terrible bedsores to develop, and neglect can cause delayed transfer to the hospital until it is too late. Neglect is often the result of too few or incompetent nursing home staff.
