Medical malpractice is a very specialized field of law. Having said that, people who handle medical malpractice cases generally handle malpractice cases of all sizes. Rather than picking your lawyer based on the size of the firm, pick the firm based on how much experience the attorneys in the firm have in prosecuting medical malpractice cases. Lawyers.com has a good site for selecting a specialty firm in your geographical area. So does Avvo, and Findlaw. These sights will direct you to the websites of specific law firms When they do, make sure the firm you are considering has a record of success in medical malpractice litigation. Many PI firms will indicate that they do this kind of work, and then simply refer you to a firm that handles these kinds of cases.
Good luck.
