What kinds of medical malpractice cases do your firm typically handle?
As a law firm focused on medical malpractice cases, we typically handle cases involving errors or negligence on the part of medical professionals or healthcare facilities resulting in harm or injury to a patient. This can include cases involving misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis, surgical errors, medication errors, birth injuries, and other forms of medical negligence.
It is important to note that not all medical errors or unfavorable outcomes in healthcare settings constitute medical malpractice. In order to establish medical malpractice, it must be shown that the medical professional or facility breached the standard of care owed to the patient, and that this breach caused the patient's injury or harm. This typically requires expert testimony and a thorough investigation of the specific facts and circumstances of each case.
Additionally, medical malpractice cases are subject to various statutes of limitations and other legal requirements that vary by jurisdiction. It is important for potential claimants to seek legal advice as soon as possible to ensure their rights are protected and to explore potential avenues for legal action.
In summary, our firm typically handles cases involving medical professionals or healthcare facilities that have breached their duty of care to a patient, resulting in harm or injury. It is important to seek legal advice early on in the process and to carefully examine the specific facts and circumstances of each case to determine whether medical malpractice has occurred.
