Malpractice (defence)
We regularly represent defendants and insurers in proceedings to
- defend themselves against liability claims of public and private hospitals, clinics, medical practices, dental practices and midwives against clinical negligence( medical liability and medical malpractice claims
- defend themselves against liability claims of cantons, municipalities and state authorities (state liability in tort and liability for judicial activity claims)
- defend themselves against liability claims of law firms (lawyer’s liabilitiy)
We prepare expert opinions for defendants and their insurers to assess complex, high-value and sensitive cases and to develop appropriate defence strategies.
Furthermore, we are the first point of contact in crises when medical personnel, public service employees or lawyers are confronted with accusations.
In liability proceedings, we exclusively work for defendants and their insurers. We closely work with colleagues that are experienced criminal defence law.
