MEDICAL MALPRACTICE ATTORNEYS

Medical Malpractice Claims

Typically, medical malpractice claims must contain:

• A violation of the standard or typical medical care
• An injury caused by the negligence
• An injury resulting in significant damages

Medical malpractice lawsuits are very complex and can be difficult to prove. State laws covering medical practice claims and lawsuits vary greatly and can include:

• Limits on the deadline to file your claim
• Limits on how much you can be compensated for your injury
• Notification requirements on your intention to file a medical malpractice lawsuit or claim

In most medical malpractice cases, expert testimony is required regarding the standard or typical medical care for your original aliment, as well as the relationship between the physician’s medical decision and your injury. These reasons are why it is important to speak with an experienced medical malpractice lawyer as soon as possible.
