New Jersey Lawyers Helping You Resolve Misinterpreted Results And Improper Medical Screening
Improper screening for serious medical conditions can lead to misdiagnoses or failures to diagnose life-threatening conditions such as cancer, birth injury, infections or cardiac complications. A medical professional is negligent when they fail to screen a patient after recognizing certain symptoms, during specific stages of pregnancy, or at standard intervals in a person’s life.
Primary care physicians, nurses, specialists of all types, hospitals and clinics may be held accountable for improper screening or failure to screen or diagnose. When you or a loved one is diagnosed with an illness or disease in a late stage of the condition, the first question you should ask yourself is “Could this have been prevented?”
It costs you nothing to ask that question of our experienced medical malpractice lawyers. At Breslin & Breslin, we offer free initial consultations in the case of a potential medical negligence claim. Our trial-tested attorneys have decades of experience prosecuting cases and obtaining maximum compensation for clients who have suffered needlessly because of improper screening and misdiagnosis.

Skilled, Resourceful Representation
If a standard, periodic screening for cancer such as a mammogram, blood work or colonoscopy was not performed, or if a biopsy or MRI was not performed after noticing a potentially cancerous growth, it will take a specialized medical professional to identify why the screening was not performed and whether the decision not to screen was consequential to a related medical condition.
Every case that we handle is first examined by medical experts in a variety of fields.
- If a delayed or botched screening led to a birth defect in your child, we work with a trusted obstetric specialist to build your case for compensation.
- If a radiologist or pathologist fails to diagnose breast cancer, we work with an oncology specialist to identify what went wrong and why.
- If a cardiologist fails to diagnose a heart irregularity or an irregular heartbeat, we prepare a case that is designed to influence improvement to the way in which hearts are monitored and patients are screened.
