What is Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider fails to follow accepted standards of care, and that failure results in harm to the patient. These cases often require a comprehensive understanding of both legal and medical matters to evaluate and pursue effectively.

Examples of medical malpractice we handle include:

  • Failure to diagnose or misdiagnosis of serious conditions
  • Surgical and anesthesia errors
  • Birth injuries, such as cerebral palsy or shoulder dystocia
  • Medication or prescription errors
