Lynn R. Laufenberg established Laufenberg Law Group 2000 in order to spread the principles of his practice that he learned over more than thirty years of representing Wisconsin families and individuals who suffered losses due to the negligence of others. These core principles were recognized by the Wisconsin Academy of Trial Lawyers, which named Lynn Laufenberg the Robert L. Habush Trial Lawyer of the year 2006. Laufenberg Stombaugh & Jassak S.C. accept medical malpractice cases of patients who have been injured due to a doctor's negligence or misconduct. Clients who have been injured or have suffered further injury as a result of a negligent doctor acting against their best interest have been represented by us. We have won settlements or verdicts in favor of clients in the following situations. Statisticians have shown that nearly 98,000 Americans die each year from medical errors in American hospitals. This is equivalent to 3 fatal plane crashes per day. Many times this number suffers severe injuries. The wheels of justice still turn against those who are incompetent or careless in their healthcare, but doctors and other medical professionals continue to win. Many politicians speak so frequently of America's current medical malpractice crisis, but they don't mention these figures or the information that those figures tell us about the disarray, lack of safety, and procedures in American medical institutions. The alarming margin of error that patients are exposed to when seeking medical care is not mentioned. Their arguments are aimed at calming the anger of medical professionals and doctors who find themselves forced to cover the rising costs of malpractice insurance to settle "frivolous and bogus legal claims."
