Fierce and Compassionate Advocates for the Medically Injured

Each year, thousands of patients in California suffer injuries as a result of careless mistakes, errors in judgment and other causes of medical malpractice. These are delicate situations that require knowledge and skill in both the legal and medical fields.

Matthews Law APC of Sacramento helps clients throughout Northern California hold doctors, nurses and other medical personnel accountable for the injuries they cause to patients through misdiagnosis, medication errors or other acts of medical negligence. While very few law firms in California handle this unique, complex area of law, we provide strategic, skilled representation to families and individuals who have sustained life-altering injuries.

Diane Matthews, our founding attorney, has 30 years of experience as a registered nurse, which gives her an extensive background in health care systems, including those pertaining to emergency rooms, intensive care units and post-operative patient areas. She has dedicated her medical and legal career to being a patient advocate, pinpointing issues that may have resulted in injury and working to obtain justice on behalf of her clients.

In addition to medical malpractice, Ms. Matthews devotes substantial effort to vaccine injury litigation through the National Vaccine Information Center's Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP). These cases are handled through the court system in Washington, D.C., allowing our firm to accept cases from clients nationwide.

Approaching Cases from Multiple Perspectives, Working Toward Justice

A hallmark of our practice is our ability to approach cases from both a legal and medical perspective. We pursue both the obvious and the subtle factors that lead to medical malpractice claims, digging through the details to find the truth and use it to advocate on our clients' behalf.

Our goals are to obtain justice and full financial compensation for our clients from hospitals, clinics, and other medical providers while also preventing injury to others in the future. To this end, we will also fight for our clients who have suffered injury due to recalled or defective medical devices and dangerous drugs.

If you retain our law firm, you will be hiring experienced and loyal legal advocates who will always "do the right thing" for their clients. We are fierce negotiators with strong trial instincts, seeking out-of-court solutions when it benefits our clients, but also pursuing forceful litigation when the situation demands it.
