FAQ

Morgan & Morgan

    What Is Medical Malpractice?

    Medical malpractice takes place when a medical professional treats a patient in a way that deviates from standards in the medical community and a patient gets injured as a result. Various parties may be liable in these cases, including doctors, surgeons, nurses, and even hospitals. The victim may be awarded compensation for their losses.

    What Are Some Common Examples of Medical Malpractice?

    Medical malpractice occurs in many forms, including:

    • Anesthesia errors such as administering the wrong dose of anesthesia or administering it too late.
    • Birth injuries such as cerebral palsy, Erb’s palsy, or brachial plexus palsy due to delayed c-section, oxygen deprivation, or excessive force on the newborn’s neck or limbs, among other errors.
    • Emergency room errors such as providing the wrong medication, making an incorrect diagnosis, or neglecting to monitor a patient post-treatment.
    • Hospital malpractice in the event the hospital failed to monitor employees or properly evaluate their experience and qualifications.
    • Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis on account of a failure to listen to the patient, recognize key symptoms, order the right tests, or interpret test results correctly.
    • Postoperative negligence such as failing to monitor a patient or identify symptoms after surgery.

    The above is far from an exhaustive list, so contact us to find out if you qualify for a lawsuit.

    Do I Need a Lawyer?

    In addition, you should seek out a law firm with ample resources to take on major hospitals and insurance companies. With an army of 1,000 attorneys and 4,000 support staff, that law firm is Morgan & Morgan.
