Justice Pursued with Integrity: The Hornbuckle Firm Reflects on the Parker Trial

At The Hornbuckle Firm, our mission has always been to stand with those who have been harmed and to pursue accountability with unwavering dedication. As reported in the Bellingham Herald, during the recent medical negligence trial involving Patricia Parker, we presented a case built on years of investigation, expert testimony, and heartfelt advocacy. While the jury ultimately ruled in favor of the defense, we remain proud of the work we did and the courage of the Parker family in seeking justice.

This case centered on a critical delay in stroke diagnosis that led to permanent vision loss and life-altering consequences for Ms. Parker. Though the verdict was not what we hoped for, the trial brought important issues to light—issues that deserve public attention and continued scrutiny. We believe that every voice raised in pursuit of justice contributes to a safer, more accountable healthcare system.

We thank the Parker family for their trust and resilience throughout this process. Their story is a reminder of why we do what we do. At The Hornbuckle Firm, we prepare every case for trial with the belief that truth matters. And while verdicts may not always reflect the outcome we seek, each case moves the needle toward greater awareness and accountability. We remain committed to advocating for those impacted by medical negligence—and to upholding the principles of justice with compassion, courage, and resolve.
