Talk to us →Medical Malpractice
We handle medical malpractice claims involving bodily and emotional harm caused by treatment that did not meet the accepted standard of care. Each case is reviewed carefully and individually before we recommend the next steps. When needed, we also help identify possible funding sources to manage the process.
Assessing a medical malpractice claim requires a careful review of the medical records, an analysis of what actually happened, and a comparison to the reasonable standard of care in similar circumstances. In many cases, an expert medical opinion is needed to determine whether there was a professional deviation and the scope of the resulting harm.
The key legal question is the distinction between an adverse outcome or complication and actionable negligence: did the treating provider act below the accepted professional standard, and did that deviation cause the damage. We also examine informed consent, the information provided to the patient, and the adequacy of follow up and monitoring throughout the course of treatment.
Examples of situations where liability is examined
- Delayed diagnosis or failure to perform a necessary test
- Inappropriate treatment choice or inadequate follow up
- Surgical failure, birth complications, infections, and complication management
- Violation of autonomy and lack of informed consent
