We rely today on medicine for everything. Whether it is a broken leg, a
cold or flu, a constant headache or a car crash, we know that doctors
will be there to “fix everything.” Or so we think. Sadly,
with as much as we rely on the medical system today, there are more and
more cases of magical negligence and malpractice than ever. Doctors are
making false diagnosis and then preforming the wrong surgery, implants
are causing metallic poising in patients bodies, babies aren’t being
handled properly during birth; the list goes on.
The Tolson Firm, LLC was established because of this very concern, because there are too many
victims who feel as though they have no hope for justice or compensation
and we want to be there to offer the legal representation they deserve.
Audrey Tolson graduated from Georgia State University with her Juris Doctorate
law degree in 1995, and has been a member of the state bar ever since.
With 16 years of law experience under her belt, she spent the majority
of that time with a prestigious firm in Atlanta only to discover in 2011
that she felt it was time to move forward and begin her own practice.
She has since created the Tolson Law Firm with a purpose of focusing of
those injuries victims have received by way of medical malpractice or
negligence.
With close to two decades of legal experience she is well known and acknowledged
in her state as a personal injury attorney, having been awarded the Top
100 Female lawyers in her state, named as
Super Lawyers® Rising Stars℠ Under 40, among many others. For a full listing of her experience, education
and accolades

her love for non-profit organizations, and she is currently on the board
for many different groups that seek to help those in need and at risk.
Medical negligence is very common, and our firm specifically deals with
personal injury cases in the medical field. Many times, an illness or
injury can cause not also large amounts of pain and suffering, but it
can also cause a lot of financial stress on an individual or family. While
many people do have medical coverage to some extent, it is very likely
that the insurance can only cover so much, even the deductibles can be
overwhelming for some patients. Our firm has had experience in a variety
of different medical negligence cases and we are ready to ready to represent
those who feel as though they have been unlawfully treated and are in
need of compensation. Categories we represent are situations like:
surgical errors,
brain injuries,
birth injuries, anesthesia errors,
misdiagnosis, Kaiser medical malpractice, wrongful death and so much more.
Kaiser Permanente is a leading medical care facility in the United States, with almost 9
million people currently under their medical plan. Despite the fact they
are among the largest medical corporations in our country, they are still
not perfect; and many medical negligence cases have arisen behind their
doors. Here at the Tolson Law Firm we have experience specifically handling
Kaiser medical malpractice cases, and we want to help you as well.
Anesthesia errors are another common occurrence for patients, and for those who are unable
to handle pain, this may be a big deal. Anesthesia is the drug that is
generally used during a surgery in order to “put someone under”
or place them into a deep and pain free sleep. Unfortunately, there have
been many issues with anesthesia in the past including not giving the
patient enough for the pain, overdose therefore causing other issues,
allergic reactions, negligent monitoring of the patient and many more.
While this may be a simple process, the results if not done properly may
have severe consequences.
Wrongful death is among one of the greatest concerns in the medical field, especially
when the family is trying to decide whether it was a direct result of
the person’s injury or illness, or because of an error made by the
medical professional. At our firm, even if you are uncertain about there
that line is, contact us and we can sit down together and discuss the
details of the situation. If we are able to find a link to the death being
not an act of nature, then we may have a wrongful death case. When a person
loses a loved one, spouse, parent, or dependent family member not only
can the emotional suffering be overwhelming but also the lost wages and
medical expenses prior to their death. By filing a wrongful death claim
we can seek to retrieve the financial compensation that the family deserves
in that trying time. Unfortunately, no amount of money will ever bring
a lost loved one back, but it can help the situation.
Medical malpractice is a very sensitive subject for any individual or family,
and at our firm we are committed to offering our clients the compassion
and care they need during this legal process. We understand the high stress
levels you are likely experiencing, on top of the pains and discomforts
and as we seek to be patient and kind with you, we strive for an aggressive
representation before the court. Specifically when going up against large
corporations, a lot of attention to detail is required as well as time
and effort, and our firm is willing to do whatever it takes to help you.
This practice was started so that wrongs could be made right, and people
who have been negligently treated in the medical arena can walk away with
the compensation they deserve. Consider following us on
