Malpractice Litigation

Malpractice litigation can be a long, complicated process. It requires the patient or a legally authorized representative, to prove that the doctor owed them a duty of care, that the doctor violated that duty, and that the injury resulted.

There were a variety of proposals made to alter the rules governing medical malpractice law firms claims. The trial and jury system was replaced with an alternative that could cut costs and speed up settlements, eliminate juries that were too generous, and screen out fraudulent claims.

Undiagnosed

Medical malpractice is usually caused by incorrect diagnosis. It happens millions of times each year, with devastating consequences, including unneeded surgery, prolonged hospitalizations, or invasive treatment. In some cases the wrong diagnosis can cause death.

To prove malpractice attorneys it must be proven that the doctor was bound by an obligation to the patient and breached that obligation by not diagnosing the injury or illness correctly. Most of the time, the failure of the doctor to meet the standards of treatment is confirmed through an expert opinion. This could be an expert in medicine who has vast knowledge of the kind of illness in question. The expert must also show that the physician did not properly include the disease in the list of differential diagnosis by using methods such as asking more questions, making further observations or requesting additional tests to aid in the diagnostic process.

A plaintiff also has to prove that the injuries resulting from the misdiagnosis result of the breach of duty. This typically means establishing damages that are actual, such as past and future medical expenses, lost income, the suffering of others, a reduced life expectancy and other damages. The plaintiff must also file a lawsuit within the statute of limitations, which are usually two or three years after the incident was incurred.

Wrong Procedure

It might be shocking to learn that surgeons execute the wrong procedure on a patient around 20 times per week. These mistakes could result in unexpected medical expenses and further suffering for patients. An experienced medical malpractice lawyer could help you pursue the compensation you deserve for your losses.

A successful malpractice lawsuit requires a convincing claim of negligence on the part of the doctor in the case. A claim of negligence stemming from an error in surgery needs to prove that the defendant's course of action was different from the standard of care that would be provided by similarly skilled physicians in similar circumstances. This can be accomplished by expert testimony and a thorough review of medical records.

During the discovery phase, your attorney will exchange documents with the defense team to be used in your case. These documents could include medical and surgical records, lab reports, and evidence of your injuries. Your lawyer will speak with witnesses in order to gather information on your case. During the witness interview you will be asked questions under oath by the opposing counsel. This is referred to as a deposition.

Wrong-site surgeries are a rare yet serious form of malpractice. This type of negligence is usually caused by a physician's failure to follow the surgical guidelines or the medical records of the patient. In this situation, it is easy to demonstrate the negligence. However, determining which surgeon should be held accountable is not always easy.

Wrong Drugs

Every year, more than one million Americans are injured or have their health conditions worsened because of drug errors. Doctors must take extreme care when prescribing medicines to ensure that they are safe and suitable for the patient. If you suffer serious injuries because of a doctor's deviation from the standard medical care, it could be negligent.

Sometimes the error does not occur in the doctor's offices and instead occurs at the hospital. For example a nurse may misread a prescription and administer the wrong medication or dosage. A pharmacy may also be negligent by filling out the wrong prescription or one with harmful ingredients.

Emergency Room Errors

Emergency rooms can be stressful and high-pressure environments. This could be hazardous for the patients. Doctors are usually under a lot of pressure to attend to as many patients as they can and must run tests quickly, communicate with each other and write or read reports while delivering high-quality medical care to every patient. Unfortunately, these busy environments cause mistakes that could cause catastrophic harm.

ER mistakes range from mistaken diagnosis of a patient, to premature discharge. The most common causes of ER errors are inadequate medical history, misinterpretation of test results and a failure to speak with specialists. ER staff can also make mistakes when communicating with one another or with the patient for example, not communicating a patient's allergies or adverse health conditions or giving incorrect instructions to nurses.

In order to be able for a lawsuit for malpractice the plaintiff first needs to prove that the medical professional violated the standard care. The standard of care is defined as the standard of care that a reasonable medical professional would have offered in similar circumstances. The plaintiff must show that the negligence was responsible for their injury and damages. A successful plaintiff can seek compensation for future or past medical bills along with pain and suffering, lost wages and earning potential and funeral expenses, when applicable.
