Attorney in Phoenix: Skin Cancer Claims
Protecting Your Rights When There Has Been a Late Diagnosis
A malignant melanoma is one of the most aggressive and life-threatening forms of skin cancer. You may have had regular checkups and may even have expressed concern about a mole or other irregular skin lesion to your doctor, but your doctor has failed to take a biopsy or has put a diagnosis on hold. If you subsequently learned that you have an advanced stage melanoma, you want an experienced and knowledgeable lawyer to protect your interests.
At the Langley Law Firm, P.C., in Scottsdale, we protect the rights of people in Arizona who face advanced stage skin cancer because of a late diagnosis. We understand the fear and anxiety that come with any cancer diagnosis and represent you with compassion, listening carefully to your concerns. We have successfully represented individuals and their families in cases involving late diagnosis. Kathleen Langley is co-authoring a paper with a surgical oncologist on how physicians can avoid medical malpractice claims for misdiagnosis of skin cancer.

Late Diagnosis Skin Cancer Claims
We handle all types of claims involving the late diagnosis of skin cancer, with a focus on melanoma. Because melanoma is the most dangerous type of skin cancer, early diagnosis can truly make the difference between life and death. A mole or lesion that is not properly biopsied can grow to a size that is significantly more dangerous or can metastasize. We have an extensive knowledge of the different types of melanoma and have worked closely with medical professionals to understand ways that dermatologists, oncologists or other doctors can effectively diagnose and treat skin cancer at an early stage.
