Are you a victim of medical malpractice or negligence? Are your injuries or the death of your family member the result of the following:
- An error in diagnosis.
- An error in treatment.
- An error in illness management or sanitation.
- The doctor, if his or her actions deviated from generally accepted standards of practice.
- The hospital used improper care or inadequate training, such as problems with medications or sanitation.
To prove that negligence or medical malpractice occurred, certain facts must be proved that include:
- A doctor-patient relationship existed.
- The doctor was negligent.
- The doctor’s negligence caused the injury.
- The injury led to specific damages.
Even if it is clear that the doctor performed below the expected standards in his or her field, the patient can’t sue for malpractice if the patient didn’t suffer any harm. Here are examples of the types of harm patients can sue for:
- physical pain.
- mental anguish.
- additional medical bills; and
- lost work and lost earning capacity.
