Medical malpractice or medical negligence refers to the failure of a physician or other medical personnel to meet the standards of conduct for duties relating to the medical profession. Medical professionals have a duty to adhere to a standard of practice that is uniform for everyone within their field.
We are dedicated to protecting the rights of individuals who suffer harm as a result of nursing home abuse and neglect. Nursing home neglect may occur when a nursing home fails to uphold a duty of care. This could include failure to regularly assess patient needs, leaving patients in uncomfortable or even dangerous living conditions, physical and/or medical abuse, and more.
A personal injury occurs when someone suffers an injury to the body or mind as the result of an accident. When that accident is caused by the actions of another person, a personal injury lawsuit may be considered to compensate victims for their losses. Injuries can range from minor scrapes and bruises to major trauma that can even result in death.

Dave & Mindy represented me in a medical malpractice case. My hopes weren’t high when we started the case but Dave assured us that he had high hope. Sweeney Law Firm was top notch! We were always informed & up to date on everything that was happening. Even thru covid they dealt with many changes and handled them like champs. Our family is forever grateful to have someone like Dave & Mindy represent my medical malpractice case. I would highly recommend!

I would recommend Sweeney Law Firm for any nursing home litigation, as was my situation. Albeit I was determined for it to be handled one way and one way only, I was educated along the way with the pros and cons of each scenario. Mr. Farnbaugh repeatedly reminded me that I was “in charge” and they would proceed in whichever way I chose. They kept me abreast along the way to allow me to make informed decisions. Ultimately, 2 1/2 years from filing, it was settled and as painless as was feasibly possible. I am grateful for their support and expertise. Thank you specifically Sara for your timely

Having known Dave for more than a decade, and as a fellow Indiana trial lawyer, I can say with utmost confidence that Dave is widely considered one of the best medical malpractice and personal injury lawyers in Northeast Indiana. Dave brings a unique combination of intelligence, compassion, hard-work and aggressiveness to the court room in representing his clients. I highly recommend Dave as his track records speaks for itself.
