Medical Malpractice

Medical malpractice can occur in any of a number of situations, including misdiagnoses, incorrect prescriptions, lack of informed consent for serious procedures, breach of contract, unethical or inappropriate behavior, and more. Each of these categories is different, but the key is that while there is a duty for a physician or hospital to provide appropriate and even excellent care, when they fail to fulfill that duty and injury results, medical malpractices can occur and grounds for a lawsuit may exist. Only an experienced medical malpractice attorney can determine if you have a valid case for medical malpractice. A medical malpractice attorney can protect your rights and possibly win compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more, if you have been the victim of medical malpractices.

Fast Facts

  • Just 5% of doctors are guilty of half of all medical malpractice cases, showing that most medical care providers are doing a good job for their patients. It is just a small portion who produce most of the errors.
  • Many physicians today practice "defensive testing" to protect themselves from medical malpractice suits. That may not mean they are negligent, just painfully aware of the litigious nature of our society.
