malpractice attorneys Litigation

Malpractice litigation can be a long complex process. It requires the patient, or a legally designated representative, to show that the doctor had a duty to care, that the doctor violated the duty and injury resulted.

Many proposals have been put forward to alter the legal rules that govern malpractice claims. They propose to replace the jury and trial system with an alternative that would reduce costs, speed settlements, eliminate excessively large juries and screen out unsubstantial medical claims.

Undiagnosed

Misdiagnosis is one of the most prevalent forms of medical malpractice. It occurs in a multitude of instances every year, resulting in devastating consequences, including unnecessary surgery, prolonged hospital stays, or aggressive treatment. A misdiagnosis can even cause death, as in some cases that involve severe injuries or illness.

To establish malpractice, the doctor must have violated his duty to the patient by failing to diagnose an injury or illness in a timely manner. In the majority of cases, the failure of the doctor to provide the required treatment is confirmed by an expert opinion. This could be an expert in medicine who has extensive knowledge of the type of illness that is being investigated. The expert must also show that the doctor failed to properly include the disease in the list of differential diagnosis using methods such as asking more questions, conducting further examinations or requesting further tests as part of the diagnostic process.

A plaintiff also needs to prove that the injuries resulting from the mistake resulted directly from the breach of duty. This typically means establishing actual damages, like past and future medical expenses and lost income, as well as pain and suffering, shortened life expectancy and other damages. The plaintiff must also file the suit within the time limit of the statute of limitations which usually are two or three years after the injury was incurred.

Incorrect Procedure

It may be shocking to learn that surgeons execute the incorrect procedure on patients around 20 times per week. These errors in surgery can result in unanticipated medical costs as well as additional discomfort for patients. A skilled medical malpractice lawyer can help you pursue the compensation you need for your losses.

A successful malpractice lawsuit requires a strong claim that the doctor was negligent. A claim of negligence that stems from an error in surgery must prove that the defendant's course of action deviated from the standards of care that would be provided by similarly trained doctors in similar situations. This can be accomplished by expert testimony or a thorough analysis of medical records.

During the discovery process your attorney and defense team will exchange relevant documents to be used in your case. The documents could include medical and surgery records, lab reports, and other evidence of your injuries. Your lawyer will also speak with witnesses to gather evidence to support your case. In the course of the interview with the witness, the opposing attorney will inquire about your concerns under an oath. This is referred to as a deposition.

Surgery performed on the wrong site is a rare but very serious type of malpractice. This type of malpractice is usually caused by a doctor's failure to adhere to the surgical recommendations or the patient's medical records. In this case it is simple to prove the negligence. It's not always easy to determine which surgeon should be held responsible.

Wrong Drugs

Drug errors can cause injury or worsen health conditions in more than half a million Americans each year. Doctors must exercise extreme care when prescribing medication to ensure that they are safe and suitable for the patient. If a doctor's prescription is not in accordance with the medical standard of care and you suffer serious injury as result, it could be a case of malpractice.

Emergency Room Errors

Emergency rooms are high-stress and high-pressure environments which can be hazardous for patients. Doctors are pressured to treat as many patients as they can. They must also conduct tests quickly, communicate among themselves and write and read reports while providing top-quality patient treatment. Unfortunately, these busy environments lead to mistakes that can result in devastating consequences.

ER errors can range from misdiagnosis, to premature discharge of patients. The majority of ER errors result from the absence of a medical history, a mistake in interpretation or test results or a failure to consult with specialists. ER staff may also make mistakes in communicating with each other or with the patient, such as not communicating the patient's allergies or other health conditions, or not giving the correct instructions to nurses.

In order to have grounds for a malpractice claim, the plaintiff must first prove that the medical professional violated the standard of care. The standard of care is defined as the standard of care that a reasonable medical professional could have provided in similar circumstances. The plaintiff must prove that the negligence is responsible for their injury and damages. A successful plaintiff will be able to recover compensation for past or future medical bills including pain and suffering lost wages and earning potential as well as funeral expenses depending on the circumstances.
