Stockton Medical Malpractice Defense Attorneys

A Successful Medical Malpractice Suit Could Upend Your Business Or Career. Our Firm Can Help You Avoid That.

Providing quality health care services to patients is any provider's highest priority. However, the mere thought of a potential medical malpractice claim can be an ever-present concern for physicians, nurses and other health care providers.

What any health care professional facing allegations of medical malpractice needs is the aggressive approach of an experienced litigator. Not only because a lawyer with significant litigation experience is in the best position to develop an effective defense to resolve civil claims as quickly as possible; a seasoned litigator also understands the need to act assertively to protect a client's interests. At our firm, our attorneys provide aggressive, results-driven strategies to help physicians and other health care providers throughout the Central Valley and Northern California.

Even with some of the tightest controls on malpractice payouts in the United States, no provider in California can afford the financial liability that comes from an adverse decision in a medical malpractice case. Our firm will make your bottom line our highest priority, beginning with your initial consultation.

  • I’ve had the privilege of working with Malm, Fagundes LLC representing my employer for more than 20 years. Joe Fagundes in particular has repeatedly demonstrated what matters most: results.

    Brian L. LaFollette Turlock Irrigation District

  • Opening a franchise was a new experience for me, my past life was all technology based companies in Silicon Valley working for large Fortune 500 companies. This was different, it was now my money to spend or protect. All of the nuances and permit requirements was also new to me. I received what they call an FDD from Nothing Bundt Cakes corporate office, and it was 255 pages of legal “mumbo jumbo”. I certainly understood most of it because I negotiated a lot of contracts in my past, again the difference is it is now my money. A friend of mine had referred me to Joe, so that’s who I called. Joe was awesome, professional, and candid, and I like candid. In the end, Joe read the FDD, gave me his opinion and possible areas of concern(which I couldn’t do anything about anyway), filed all of the appropriate permits, business license documents, and most importantly set up our LLC. Needless to say, Joe launched our business and we have had incredible success, and it all started with him guiding us through each step.

  • I couldn’t be more pleased with the excellent advice and guidance Joseph Fagundes was able to provide Financial Center as we sought out and purchased a property for our most recent branch. We always turn to him for assistance with all of our large real estate transactions and will continue to do so in the future. When it comes to such a large purchase, it’s important that we do right by our cooperative by having a top-rate professional help navigate us through the process, and Joseph is exactly that. He is a true partner and expert when it comes to real estate law.

  • Joe did a terrific job representing my family with not one but two eminent domain cases involving our ranch. His reputation regarding eminent domain is well known in San Joaquin County. It makes a difference when you walk into a conference room to negotiate, and they see Joe by your side. He shows patience educating his client about the condemnation process. We had two very successful outcomes. I also hear he is a fairly decent baseball coach.
