Medical Malpractice Attorney in Baltimore

Medical malpractice is one of those complex areas of personal injury law that not every attorney or law firm can handle. That's because these cases usually have a higher burden of proof, meaning that the plaintiff must prove that the medical provider or facility was more likely than not negligent.

Even after proving negligence, the plaintiff must establish that they were injured or harmed in one way or another due to the defendant's actions. Keep in mind that even before filing the claim or lawsuit, the plaintiff must, in most cases, also obtain a Certificate of Merit. This certificate must be signed by a qualified medical professional, preferably a doctor, to certify that the plaintiff might have a valid claim against the defendant.

Add that to the fact that medical professionals are usually protected by unions, their employers, and even government agencies, and you will realize that it's not that easy to pursue a medical malpractice claim, especially without an attorney. But the good news is that all hope is not lost; you are in the right place if you are looking for a competent, experienced, well-equipped, and trial-ready attorney to handle your case and whatever complexities it may bring.
