Have you considered filing a medical malpractice law suit?

Medical malpractice lawsuits are often difficult to win because the injured person must prove that their injuries or death were due to negligence on behalf of a medical professional.  Hiring a well-versed attorney in medical malpractice is crucial in order to achieve favorable results.  To be successful or win this type of case your legal team must be able to prove that the patient’s injuries were caused by the doctor’s negligence. 

You must be able to prove that you sustained injuries that were directly caused by the doctor’s negligence. For example, if your doctor demonstrated medical negligence, but you didn’t sustain any injuries, you do not have a medical malpractice suit. However, if your doctor’s negligence resulted in injury, caused mental and physical pain, led to lost earning capacity and wages, exacerbated your existing condition and/or contributed to additional medical bills, you may have a case of medical malpractice. Proving this portion of your case will require the testimony of a medical expert.

WHAT DAMAGES CAN YOU RECOVER?

If you have been injured as a result of medical malpractice, you may be entitled to damages. However, it can be difficult to know what types of damages you can recover. There are different types of damages that may be available in a medical malpractice case. Keep in mind that the specific amount of damages available will vary depending on the facts and circumstances of your case. Contact an experienced attorney to discuss your specific situation.

You and your family may be entitled to economic, non-economic and punitive damages, including medical expenses, lost wages & earnings, and pain & suffering.
