Malpractice Litigation

Malpractice litigation can be a lengthy complicated procedure. It is required for the patient or a legally appointed representative to show that the doctor violated the obligation of care owed to them and that an injury resulted.

There have been a variety of proposals to modify the rules of law governing malpractice claims. These proposals would replace the trial and jury system by a different system that will lower costs, speed settlements, eliminate overly large juries and screen out unnecessary medical claims.

Misdiagnosis

Misdiagnosis is among the most common types of medical negligence. It happens millions of times every year, and can have devastating results, including unnecessary surgeries, long hospital stays, or ad hoc treatment. In some instances an error in diagnosis could cause death.

To prove that there was a malpractice it must be proven that the doctor was bound by an obligation to the patient and breached the obligation by failing to identify the injury or illness properly. In the majority of cases, the inability of the doctor to perform the required care is proven by an expert's opinion. This could be an expert medical professional who has vast knowledge of the kind of illness in question. The expert must also show that the doctor did not add the disease to their differential diagnosis list by asking further questions, or making further observations or requesting additional tests in the diagnosis procedure.

A plaintiff must also prove that the injuries resulting from the misdiagnosis resulted directly from the breach of duty. This typically means proving the actual damages, such as past or future medical expenses, lost income, pain and discomfort, reduced life span and other losses. The plaintiff must also file the suit within the time limit of the statute of limitations which typically are two or three years after the incident was caused.

Wrong Procedure

It might be shocking to learn that surgeons perform the wrong procedure on a patient around 20 times per week. These surgical errors typically result in patients being faced with unanticipated medical costs and pain and suffering. A skilled medical malpractice lawyer can help you obtain the compensation you deserve for your losses.

A successful malpractice suit demands a convincing argument that the doctor is negligent. A malpractice claim that is based on a surgical error must prove that the defendant's actions differed from the standard care that would have been offered by physicians with similar training in similar situations. This can be demonstrated through expert testimony and a thorough review of medical documents.

During the discovery phase in the discovery phase, your lawyer will exchange documents with the defense team that will be used in your case. The documents could include medical and surgical reports, lab reports, and other evidence of your injuries. Your lawyer will also interview witnesses to gather information for your case. In the course of the interview with the witness, the attorney opposing you will question you under swearing. This is referred to as a deposition.

Wrong-site surgeries are a relatively rare but very serious type of malpractice. This kind of malpractice typically involves an error by an individual doctor who does not follow the surgical recommendation or the medical history of a patient. In this scenario, it is easy to prove the negligence. However, determining which surgeon is liable for the negligence is not always easy.

Wrong Drugs

Each year, more than a million Americans are injured or have their health issues worsened by drug errors. Doctors must exercise extreme caution when prescribing drugs, to ensure they are appropriate and safe for the patient. If the doctor deviates from the medical standard of treatment and you suffer an injury as result, it could be malpractice.

Emergency Room Errors

Emergency rooms can be stressful and high-pressure environments. This can be dangerous for patients. Doctors are under pressure to treat as many patients as they can. They also have to conduct tests quickly, communicate with themselves and write and read reports and provide high-quality patient treatment. These hectic environments can lead to mistakes with devastating consequences.

ER errors can range from misdiagnosis of a patient to premature discharge. The most common causes of ER mistakes are an insufficient medical history or misinterpretation of test results and failure to consult with specialists. ER staff may also make mistakes in communicating with one another and with patients, such as not communicating a patient's symptoms of allergies, health issues or other conditions or giving incorrect instructions.

To have a basis for a malpractice lawsuit, the plaintiff must first demonstrate that the medical professional acted in violation of the standard of care. The standard of care is the amount of care that a reasonable medical professional with the same training and experience would provide in similar circumstances. The plaintiff has to prove that negligence led to their injury and subsequent damages. A successful plaintiff can recover compensation for future or past medical bills, pain and suffering, loss of earnings and wages, and funeral expenses, when applicable.
