Surgery Should Never Happen Without Your Full Consent

Were you pressured into an irreversible gender-affirming surgery without fully understanding the risks, or without truly consenting?  If this happened to you, remember: You have rights—and you may have grounds for a legal claim.

A growing number of patients in Washington are coming forward after suffering permanent harm, emotional trauma, and life-altering consequences from procedures they were rushed into or not properly evaluated for. Our attorneys represent patients harmed by surgical negligence and lack of informed consent—including those who were not given adequate psychiatric evaluation, were misled about reversibility, or felt unable to say no

Attorneys Who Will Fight For Your Rights

You Deserve the Full Truth Before Any Procedure.

Your Legal Rights As a Patient

Informed consent is one of the most fundamental rights a patient has. Before any surgery—especially one that is permanent or life-altering—your medical team is legally required to fully explain the risks, alternatives, and potential outcomes so that you can make a genuine, voluntary decision.

If that didn’t happen, whether you were rushed through the process, given incomplete information, or felt pressured to say yes, the medical provider may have violated your legal rights. Washington state law holds surgeons, hospitals, and medical facilities accountable when they fail to meet this standard of care.

At Double Eagle Injury Law, we believe every patient deserves to be heard. If you suffered physical harm, emotional trauma, or lasting consequences from a procedure you didn’t fully consent to, we are here to help you understand your options with compassion, and at no cost to you unless we win.

Signs You May Have a Legal Case

These are common circumstances our clients faced before reaching out to us. You don’t need to check every box—if any of these resonate, we encourage you to give us a call.

You Were Rushed Into an Irreversible Procedure

Your providers moved quickly through the evaluation process, discouraged you from taking more time, or scheduled surgery faster than you felt was right for you. You were not given an adequate opportunity to reflect or seek a second opinion.

The Risks Were Not Fully Explained

You were not clearly informed about the permanent nature of the procedure, the likelihood of complications, what recovery would involve, or what alternatives existed. Your consent was based on incomplete or misleading information.

You Were Not Given an Adequate Psychiatric or Mental Health Evaluation

Before some irreversible surgeries, proper protocols require a comprehensive psychological assessment. If this step was skipped, minimized, or performed in a cursory way, your providers may have failed their duty of care.

Your Harm Has Had Lasting Consequences

The impact of this experience has affected your physical health, mental wellbeing, relationships, ability to work, or quality of life. The consequences have been ongoing, not merely temporary.

You Felt Pressured or Unable to Say No

True consent must be freely given. If you felt coerced, were given the impression that refusing was not a real option, or that your providers had already decided what would happen, your consent may not have been valid.

Surgical Errors or Complications Caused Harm

The procedure was performed negligently, resulting in physical injuries, complications, or outcomes significantly worse than what you were told to expect. You have suffered lasting harm as a result of how the surgery was carried out.

Your Harm Has Had Lasting Consequences

The impact of this experience has affected your physical health, mental wellbeing, relationships, ability to work, or quality of life. The consequences have been ongoing, not merely temporary.
