Medical malpractice cases need three things.

Key Takeaways

Medical Errors Cause Devastating and Preventable Injuries

Mistakes by healthcare providers, including misdiagnosis, surgical errors, and medication mix-ups, can cause serious harm to patients who trusted them with their care.

Medical Malpractice Takes Many Forms

Malpractice claims may arise from a doctor’s failure to diagnose a condition, a surgeon’s error during a procedure, improper medication administration, or failure to obtain informed consent.

Healthcare Providers Must Meet the Standard of Care

Physicians, nurses, hospitals, and other healthcare providers are required by law to meet established standards of medical care, and those who fall short may be held legally liable.

FAQ
  • Do I have a medical malpractice case?

    You may have a case if a healthcare provider failed to meet the accepted standard of care, meaning they acted differently than a reasonably skilled provider would have under similar circumstances, and that failure caused you harm.

    This can include mistakes during surgery, delayed diagnosis, medication errors, or improper treatment. To pursue a claim, it must be shown that the provider’s actions, or inaction, directly led to your injury.

    Because these cases often require detailed medical review, speaking with an attorney can help determine whether your situation qualifies.

  • What are common examples of medical malpractice?

    Medical malpractice can take many forms, including:

    • Surgical errors, such as operating on the wrong site or leaving instruments behind
    • Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis, leading to worsened conditions
    • Birth injuries, including cerebral palsy or brachial plexus injuries
    • Anesthesia errors, such as improper dosing or monitoring
    • Medication mistakes, including incorrect prescriptions or dosages

    These errors can have serious, long-term consequences, especially when they are not addressed quickly.

  • What types of compensation may be available in a medical malpractice case?

    If you were harmed by medical negligence, compensation may be available to address both financial and personal losses. This may include:

    • Medical expenses, including corrective treatment and ongoing care
    • Lost wages or reduced earning capacity
    • Pain and suffering
    • Emotional distress
    • Long-term care or rehabilitation costs

    The value of a claim depends on the severity of the injury and its lasting impact on your life.
