Aggressively Advocating For Pharmacy Malpractice Victims 

The prescription that was supposed to heal you hurts you instead.

While the precise definition, scope, and legal consequences of medical malpractice depend on a variety of factors, this term generally refers to negligence committed by a licensed healthcare provider that causes injury to a patient or the death of a patient. Pharmacy malpractice refers to the negligent or reckless actions involving the prescription of medication.

If you have been injured by a medication mistake, you’re likely facing a long battle with insurance and the medical industry to get the money you need to heal. The last thing you need right now is to add even more stress to your recovery by trying to handle an insurance claim or legal battle on your own. That’s where we come in.

I was injured at work and needed a lawyer who would understand and not take for granted what I was going through. Alex and Johnathan with MONTLICK & ASSOCIATES were like Batman and Robin. While Alex was leading the defense he had Johnathan that not only kept in constant contact with my day to day issues, he also had first hand experience of what my injuries were and what I was going through physical, mentally and emotionally. Alex & Johnathan, you both gave me a reason to believe that not all lawyers are only about their bottom line. I thank you both for being there when I was at one of the lowest points in my life.
Ellen Forrester and Nicole Casorio are the best in the business.Incredible professionalism, honesty and efficiency.Not only was Ellen 100% accurate on her assessment of my case, she was also a straight shooter.Nicole thank you for your patience and help in navigating this stressful process.10/10

This tells me there are people who believe in great service and do what they say they're going to do. I wish you all the best. :)- Gina
When it comes to personal injuries being handled with upmost quality care, professionalism and determination to resolve all legal woes quickly and successfully. I'll be the first in a very long line of satisfied customers to say that Monica Pearson, (one of Atlanta's great Black female broadcast journalists and the first, former WSB-TV evening anchor at Channel 2 Action News) who I truly admire was right on the money (meaning trustworthy) for informing all victims of negligence to seek legal help from a proven law firm such as Montlick & Associates, who I call the best of the best LEGAL STRONG ARMS in the personal injury business!I'm a client of this wonderful establishment who truly took care of all my needs relating to my unfortunate accident, all due to a distracted driver who paid dearly for his poor driving ability.In saying that, I must recognize two important people at the firm. One is legal assistant Amber Starks (a marvelous paralegal) who kept my spirit up while I dealt with my personal recovery. Amber Starks is fantastic person to know, and second is my attorney, the incredible Nick Vocino. I call him a "legal eagle battling ram" for the underdog against vicious insurance companies. He's terrific! Nick "The Battle Ram" Vocino is "no joke" when it comes to him protecting his clients, he's fabulous! And last but also first is the entire staff at Montlick, who made me feel like one of their family members, just splendid! Alright people, I stated I was recognizing two, but I ended up acknowledging four. Monica Pearson, Amber Starks, Nick Vocino and the staff at Montlick; thank you for all that you have done and still do. All of you have earned my respect and deserve a round of applause from your clients. Ladies & gentlemen, I appreciate you for a job well done. Many blessings I send to you.
When I was injured in an automobile accident I called Motlick Personal Injury Law Firm. Attorney Cate Powell and her team took on my case and won. I am thankful that I knew which law firm to call. If you are injured in an accident, call Motlick!

What Is Pharmacy Malpractice?

Pharmacy malpractice refers to many instances involving medication. This includes the failure to prescribe, administer, or dispense a medication, a patient receiving medication too early or too late, a patient receiving a drug not authorized for them, incorrect prescription dosage or preparation, administration errors, the failure to take into account a patient’s medical conditions or potential drug interactions, or medical personel not following proper dispensing/prescribing rules for a medication

These errors can take place in a hospital, doctor’s office, pharmacy and other medical spaces.

With nearly 7,000 prescription medications and over-the-counter drugs available in the United States, contributing to between 7-9,000 deaths related to medication errors each year.

Factors attributing to mishandling of medication

Many factors can cause errors in prescribing medications such as unrealistic workloads, distractions, poor penmanship, inadequate technician assistance, mistaking drugs with similar names and packaging

A study of 500 pharmacists done by The Pharmacists Mutual Insurance Company showed that 52% of errors were due to the wrong drug being dispensed, 27% were from the wrong strength being dispensed, and 7.4% were due to wrong directions being given.

Holding Negligent Pharmacists Responsible

We Don't Settle for Less. Neither Should You.

A pharmacist who officially fills a prescription may be responsible for incorrectly filling a prescription that causes injury or death because he or she breached the standard of care. Also, any technical or clerical co-workers of the pharmacist who failed to act in accordance with proper procedures potentially can be held liable. The pharmacy can be held liable for the harm caused by the employee in the course and scope of employment as well.

Recommendations for helping avoid pharmaceutical errors include:

  • Checking the prescription before leaving the doctor’s office
  • Making sure the writing is clear
  • Verbally confirming the drug and dosage schedule with the doctor/pharmacist and comparing it with the written prescription form
  • Read the label on the prescription once it’s filled
  • Ask the pharmacist to open the prescription container and confirm the medication inside is correct
  • Seek counseling from the pharmacist for any new medication to clarify any potential interactions with other drugs
  • Ensure that the pharmacist has reviewed the prescription and dispensing of the drug
