Medical Malpractice Cases

As a lawyer specializing in medical malpractice cases, I handle a range of cases involving medical errors or negligence resulting in harm to a patient.

Examples of Medical Malpractice Cases

• Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis: When a doctor fails to correctly diagnose a condition or disease, or they diagnose it too late, and this results in harm to the patient.
• Surgical errors: When a surgeon makes a mistake during a procedure, or operates on the wrong body part, resulting in harm or injury to the patient.
• Medication errors: When a doctor or other medical professional prescribes the wrong medication or dosage, or fails to properly monitor the patient's reaction to a medication, resulting in harm or injury.
• Birth injuries: When a baby suffers harm as a result of a medical mistake or negligence during pregnancy, labor, or delivery.
• Anesthesia errors: When a patient is under anesthesia and the anesthesiologist or medical staff makes a mistake, resulting in harm or injury to the patient.

It's important to note that not all medical mistakes or instances of harm necessarily constitute medical malpractice. To prove medical malpractice, it must be shown that the medical professional breached the standard of care that a reasonable, similarly-trained professional would have provided in the same situation, and that this breach directly caused harm to the patient.

If you believe that you or a loved one has been the victim of medical malpractice, it's important to immediately seek the advice of an experienced attorney who can help you determine whether you have a case and guide you through the legal process.
