Medical Malpractice Attorneys and Lawyers

Anyone know any good attorneys in the Southern Illinois area?

I need an attorney, and I need one now. I need an attorney for medical malpractice. I went to the same OBGYN for months, and I keppt telling him something was wrong, and I told him that I was having problems urinating, and he tested my urine and told me that I had high protien in my urine, and he kept telling me that my baby was not gaining enough wait, what was wrong was I had a condition called toxcemmea, but he never diagnosed it, in fact it was not diagnosed until I finally sought a 2nd opinion, the day I went to see the 2nd OBGYN, I was severely sick, as I had been for some time, as my other OB had seen me, anyhow, the day I saw the 2nd doctor, I was hospitallized, and I ended up developing another condition called HELLP syndrome, then I hd a brain annurism, none of this would have happened had my 1st OB diagnosed me with preclampsia to began with, and I was able to diagnose it once looking it up on Web MD. Me and my baby almost died because this guy did not do his job, I'm not

1. Tried the yellow pages?
2. Toxemia is not uncommon with pregnant women. It is so unbelievable that he did not diagnose it. Call the Bar Association in your area. They will give you information. Better yet, go through the yellow pages and call lawyers to interview. Better yet, check for support groups for people who have had problems with still Born or birth defects. Get on the computer and type in support groups for your area and you should find answers. Just make sure you get an attorney that will not be paid off by the doctor. However, if it were me, I would just thank God that my baby and I lived. You have so much to look fore ward to. Lawsuits just stress you out and it will make your baby stressed. Call your Clergyman and talk to him/her. Think of what is best for the baby now, the worst is over. File a complaint against him/her with the Medical Board. You will get satisfaction.
