Sandweg & Ager, P.C.

Medical malpractice describes misconduct by professional healthcare providers—usually a physician, nurse technician, pharmacist, or another hospital worker—that results in harm to patients. When the care provider's treatment conforms to the benchmarks set by others with equivalent training and judgment, medical malpractice occurs. Thus, the healthcare provider has made a poor, imprudent, or unreasonable decision. Today's American health system often fails to give patients high-quality care, leading to these errors. By filing medical malpractice lawsuits in Arizona courts, we assist the clients who have sustained injuries by the American health system. Our firm is highly respected by our clients, former clients, and colleagues for our success in court. Medical malpractice cases are challenging to manage, as our experienced attorneys recognize. They entail personal harm or death and are among the most difficult and costly claims. These cases often involve complex medical and legal matters. They are subject to defense by experienced and well-resourced attorneys and deep-pocketed insurance firms that present legal hurdles. A lawyer with little or no expertise in medical malpractice and trial law cannot succeed in court. John Ager and Bill Sandweg have almost 60 combined years of victory in these situations, demonstrating their experience and expertise. They have a proven track record in Arizona.

John Ager garners a lot of admiration for his client-oriented approach and expertise. Clients mention the vigilance and empathy he displays towards their med mal cases. He is also honest and gives clients an unembellished view of the situation. His advice can be a little blunt, but it has especially helpful in managing expectations. Consequently, most clients commend the support they received from him and his colleagues. However, there are opposing views. A few clients exude dissatisfaction and sadness due to the firm’s decision not to take their cases. Concerns are mainly about the delay in a crucial time. That notwithstanding, clients laud the communication skills implemented by the professional staff and the knowledgeable nurse on the team. Ager is a great listener and was able to create an open and honest space for me to ask questions and talk about my concerns. I would in a heartbeat refer him to friends and family if they were looking for a trustworthy and knowledgeable attorney, particularly when dealing with a medical malpractice case. The firm is unreservedly recommended by others for their excellent teamwork and professional handling of their client’s cases.
