What Is Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice occurs when a professional healthcare provider, doctor, nurse, technician fails to provide a patient with proper care. So if a medical professional didn’t provide the standard of care that other professionals would provide in the same circumstances, they may be liable for any harm caused.

A doctor or medical profession in the same field must sign an affidavit stating that medical negligence has in fact occurred. A patient may then file a medical malpractice claim to receive compensation for the losses caused by the medical professional’s negligent behavior.

What Should I Do If I Think I Have a Medical Malpractice Claim?

If you believe you suffered from medical malpractice of a medical provider, it is critical that you speak with an experienced attorney as soon as possible. A lawyer will be able to evaluate your situation, speak with the correct medical professionals to determine if you have a case and then guide you through the entire legal process. The attorneys at The Dickinson Law Firm can help you through this process.

What Compensation Is Available to Victims of Medical Malpractice?

If you are a victim of medical malpractice, and if the negligence can be shown to be the cause of your injury and harm, you are entitled to damages related to how the malpractice has changed any aspect of your life, whether it is physical, emotional or mental.
