What is Medical Malpractice?

 We turn to the expertise of physicians and other medical professionals to help us stay healthy, and to put us on a proper course of treatment for an illness, injury, pregnancy, or other health-related issue.

 In the vast majority of situations, health care providers offer professional and invaluable services to their patients. But mistakes happen, good intentions aside.  And even a seemingly slight error in treatment or diagnosis can have devastating consequences.

 "Medical malpractice" refers to cases in which a doctor or other health care professional fails to perform competently in providing care to a patient, and the patient suffers harm as a result.

 Medical malpractice cases often share two characteristics: on the practical side they come charged with emotion and stress, and on the legal side they are extremely complex and challenging.
