In Ohio alone, over 210 claims for Medical Malpractice were filed and won by the injured party. Overall, approximately 30% of claims came as a result of death, and 15% were filed as a result of quadriplegic damage, brain injury, or lifelong care.

This year, Tittle & Perlmuter launched Allen Tittle’s Medical Malpractice Awareness Scholarship to provide students with the opportunity to raise awareness about the importance of patient advocacy and medical malpractice in today’s healthcare industry.
This scholarship aims to not only raise awareness of the dangers of medical malpractice, but to also provide support for those affected. To learn about different forms of medical malpractice including physician negligence, surgical errors, sepsis, and more, download a free copy of our Medical Malpractice Guide.
To be considered for this scholarship, we asked students to submit an original essay discussing the importance of being a patient advocate in today’s health care industry. We also encouraged students to describe a time in which they, or someone they knew, experienced receiving poor medical care and what they learned from that experience.
The recipient of the Allen Tittle’s Medical Malpractice Scholarship will be chosen during the month following the scholarship deadline.
To be eligible for this scholarship, candidates must email their full application (including the essay, resumé, and transcript) to info@tittlelawfirm.com by November 30, 2020. Any applications sent after this date will not be considered.
