Medical Malpractice

Medical malpractice is a complex area of the law. Navigating malpractice claims requires the expertise of a seasoned medical negligence lawyer. These cases often involve determining liability, or who is legally responsible for the damages suffered by a patient due to substandard medical care.

Our personal injury law firm specializes in handling such malpractice cases. We work diligently to ensure that victims of medical negligence receive the compensation they deserve for their damages. With our thorough understanding of the complexities involved in these cases, we strive to build strong claims and help our clients achieve justice.

What is Medical Negligence?

Medical negligence is a term used to describe situations where a healthcare professional or provider fails to provide the standard of care expected, resulting in harm to the patient. This could occur in various scenarios such as in the emergency room, during childbirth, or even in a routine check-up. For instance, if a condition is misdiagnosed leading to unnecessary suffering, or if birth injuries occur due to accidents and negligence during childbirth, these could all potentially form the basis for a medical malpractice claim.

At our personal injury law firm, our experienced injury lawyers understand the pain and stress that can result from such traumatic experiences. We are committed to helping victims of medical negligence navigate the complex process of filing a malpractice lawsuit. Our goal is to ensure that you receive a fair settlement to compensate for your physical, emotional, and financial losses.

Don’t Settle for Less When Your Doctor Injures You: Medical Malpractice

Did you experience negligence during a medical procedure or while under the treatment of a doctor? It’s not uncommon. Talk to a medical malpractice lawyer today to understand your case and calculate proper financial compensation.

Medical malpractice victims need better representation in today’s court system. Approximately 251,000 people in the US die every year due to medical malpractice. However, many patients do not seek a lawsuit as the odds typically favor hospitals and doctors, thanks to powerful lobbyists who want to make it difficult for victims to get financial compensation for lifelong injuries and wrongful death due to medical malpractice.

As such, it’s important to have a malpractice lawyer on your side. Our firm has represented plaintiffs as malpractice attorneys for over 40 years. We’ll help you win your case and get justice, even when hospital insurance companies won’t back down. With our team of medical malpractice law experts and resources, we’ll be able to file the proper paperwork, ask the right questions in trial, and negotiate with insurance companies to ensure that you receive the correct financial compensation.

A medical malpractice incident occurs when a healthcare provider, such as your primary care doctor or a surgeon, makes a mistake with your treatment and deviates from the acceptable standards of care. The provider’s action then causes injury to the patient.

Whether it’s a hospital, doctor, surgeon, nurse, or another party who has medical negligence, you may be able to hold these parties liable for any losses you’ve experienced due to their medical negligence.

For example, surgeons may inform you of what they’ll do in surgery, but instead, they remove the wrong organ or even leave a surgical element inside of your body. We’ve seen it all. These mistakes cause grievous injuries, but there are many negligent actions that can cause smaller injuries that still persist long after the treatment or procedure. These may be eligible for a lawsuit if the victim can prove negligence.

You may be able to gain compensation to pay for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages. However, it’s crucial that a medical lawyer assist you as hospitals and doctors typically rely on very experienced insurance lawyers to represent them in medical malpractice lawsuits.

How a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Can Help

It’s important to understand that all civil cases have a statute of limitations, so you’ll want to know if you have a case as soon as possible. Talking to a medical malpractice attorney can help with that.

You likely have a case if you can prove negligence occurred. Medical malpractice lawyers are trained to analyze evidence and provide the best possible care based on medical procedure reports, photos, videos, statements, and other evidence crucial to your case.

We’re happy to review your case and provide a no-obligation evaluation. This is the first step to understanding more about your case and what evidence will be needed to obtain the best possible verdict. In most cases, that means significant financial compensation to cover your losses, but it can also mean that abusive doctors and hurtful hospital practices are punished for the poor treatment you received.

To prove medical malpractice, medical lawyers will assist you in showing that the doctor or other healthcare providers took negligent actions that directly caused harm to the victim. There are a few ways to prove negligence in a medical malpractice case, including:

Duty of Care

The provider must have violated their duty to a patient.

Causation

The patient must be able to provide evidence and show that the breach of duty directly resulted in the patient’s injury.

Damages

To receive damages, including financial compensation, the injury must have caused losses for the patient. These are the economic or non-economic “damages.” For example, the patient had to go to physical therapy after a mistake was made in surgery that caused unnecessary harm and strain. You can also sue for emotional suffering in certain cases.

Examples of Medical Malpractice Cases

We review and take on a variety of medical malpractice cases each year. Even if you’re not sure if your case qualifies for medical malpractice, we’d like to talk to you and determine what financial compensation could be available to you.

Here are some examples of medical malpractice cases:

  • Anesthesia errors (administering the wrong dose, etc)
  • Birth injuries (negligence resulting in cerebral palsy, etc)
  • Excessive force (resulting in nerve damage or other injuries)
  • Delayed C-Section
  • Oxygen deprivation of a newborn
  • Emergency room errors
  • Failing to diagnose a condition
  • Failing to recognize postoperative infections
  • Neglecting to monitor a patient properly
  • Giving a drug to a patient who is allergic
  • Failure to properly evaluate employee’s experience, resulting in an injury
  • Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis
  • Failure to recognize key symptoms
  • Failing to interpret test results
  • Bloodstream infections
  • Failing to refer a patient to a specialist

 

This is not a full list. There are many other reasons for medical malpractice lawsuits, and you may be awarded damages just the same. It’s best to speak to a medical lawyer as soon as possible to get your questions answered and understand if you have a case.
