What is Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider's negligence causes injury or illness to a patient. It's important to note that not every mistake made by a doctor or other medical professional will give rise to a medical malpractice claim. In order to have a valid medical malpractice claim, you need to be able to establish that the healthcare provider was negligent.

In order to prove negligence in a medical malpractice claim, you need to be able to establish the following:

• The healthcare provider owed you a duty of care
• The healthcare provider breached the duty of care
• The breach of the duty of care caused your injuries or illness
• You suffered damages as a result

Healthcare providers have a duty of care to their patients. This means that they have a legal obligation to provide care that is consistent with the accepted standard of care. The standard of care is the level of care that a reasonably competent healthcare provider would have provided under the same or similar circumstances.

How Do I Prove Medical Malpractice?

Just because you had a bad outcome from a medical treatment or procedure doesn't necessarily mean that you were the victim of medical malpractice. In order to have a valid medical malpractice claim, you need to be able to establish that the healthcare provider's negligence caused your injuries or illness. This can be challenging, as healthcare providers and their insurers will do everything they can to avoid liability.

Our experienced medical malpractice attorneys know what it takes to prove negligence in a medical malpractice claim. We know how to gather evidence that proves the healthcare provider's negligence and how to build a strong case that gets results. We can help you every step of the way, from filing the initial claim to negotiating a fair settlement or winning a verdict in court.
