Surgical Errors Lawyers Coral Gables — Wrong-Site Surgery, Retained Objects & Anesthesia Mistakes.
When a Coral Gables or Miami-Dade surgeon, anesthesiologist, hospital, or ambulatory surgery center departs from the accepted standard of care and a patient is harmed, Florida law gives that patient a right to be made whole.

Why Farber Law
Chapter 766 Handled Correctly From Day One
Florida surgical error cases live or die on the pre-suit investigation, notice of intent, and corroborating affidavit from a qualified expert (§ 766.203). We handle the statutory framework so the claim survives motions to dismiss and gets to the merits.
Board-Certified Expert Network
We work with board-certified surgeons, anesthesiologists, and nursing experts — including the specialty-match requirements of § 766.102(5) — to identify the specific standard-of-care breach and prove causation.
Former Insurance Defense Perspective
David Farber spent years defending hospitals and medical malpractice carriers before founding the firm. That inside view of how surgical malpractice claims are evaluated, defended, and tried is now used to build claims that carriers take seriously.
Coral Gables & Miami-Dade Focus
We handle surgical negligence claims arising from Baptist Health, Jackson Memorial, University of Miami Hospital, Doctors Hospital, Mercy, and the growing network of ambulatory surgery centers across Miami-Dade — including cases against sovereign-immunity providers under Fla. Stat. § 768.28.
