A delayed or missed diagnosis can change everything. A condition that was treatable in its early stages can become far more serious — or even fatal — if it goes undetected for weeks or months. Misdiagnosis is one of the most common forms of medical malpractice, and it happens across specialties: missed cancer diagnoses, unrecognized cardiac conditions, overlooked imaging findings, and more.
If you were told everything was fine — and then later discovered a serious condition that had been missed — you may have a claim. The legal question is whether a reasonably competent physician would have identified the condition under the same circumstances. This is a factual and medical determination that requires experienced review. Davis Levin Livingston helps Hawaiʻi patients understand their rights when a diagnosis was missed or delayed.

Davis Levin Livingston congratulates partners Loretta Sheehan and Blaine Rogers for securing a partial $900,000 settlement with the federal government for the family of a 7-month-old infant who tragically died after being given a lethal dose of diphenhydramine, the active ingredient in Benadryl, while in the care of an unauthorized childcare provider at a military housing facility in Hawaii.

The lawsuit alleged that authorities knew that the government and others were aware the provider was operating an unauthorized daycare despite multiple complaints and cease-and-desist notices, yet failed to stop the operation.

Can I sue a hospital for medical negligence in Hawaiʻi? Yes, and it is more common than many people realize. Hospitals can be held responsible for their own institutional failures — including understaffing, inadequate protocols, and unsafe conditions — as well as for the actions of their employed doctors and nurses. Identifying who is responsible in a medical malpractice case often involves a thorough review of records and an understanding of how hospital systems work. Davis Levin Livingston has pursued accountability against hospitals and healthcare institutions throughout Hawaiʻi for over four decades. Visit https://www.davislevin.com/s/a7Q7v4r

Summer in Hawaiʻi brings crowded beaches, busy resorts, and high foot traffic at tourist attractions across the islands. For property owners, that also means a heightened responsibility to maintain safe conditions for guests and visitors.
Premises liability law holds property owners and managers accountable when a dangerous condition causes injury — whether that's a wet surface near a pool, an inadequate railing on a balcony, poor lighting in a parking area, or negligent security at a venue. If you were injured on someone else's property this summer — whether as a resident or a visitor — you may have a claim. The fact that you were at a resort or signed a waiver does not automatically eliminate your rights. Davis Levin Livingston represents injured clients throughout Hawaiʻi and is experienced in holding property owners accountable. Visit https://www.davislevin.com/s/N9X7B8P

Surgery carries inherent risks — but not every surgical complication is unavoidable. Some surgical errors represent a clear failure to meet the standard of care: operating on the wrong site, leaving a surgical instrument or sponge inside a patient, damaging healthy tissue or nerves, or making decisions during a procedure that no competent surgeon would make.
These errors can cause lasting damage, require additional surgeries, and in the most serious cases, cost a patient their life. If you or a loved one experienced an unexpected complication after surgery — and you are not getting clear answers about what happened — you have the right to seek an independent review of your records. Davis Levin Livingston handles surgical malpractice cases throughout Hawaiʻi and is not afraid to take on the most complex medical cases. Visit https://www.davislevin.com/s/a0o9s3F

A mother arrived for a routine prenatal check at 40 weeks and 2 days. What followed was a cascade of missed warning signs, delayed intervention, and ultimately a cesarean section that came too late. Her baby was born limp, required resuscitation, and was diagnosed with Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy — resulting in permanent quadriplegia and developmental delays. Davis Levin Livingston secured a $6,000,000 recovery for this family. No amount of money can undo what happened — but accountability matters, and so does the ability to provide for a child's lifetime of care. Visit https://www.davislevin.com/s/o5C6I47
