Medical malpractice is the result of the wrongful actions of medical professionals or a medical facility. These medical errors can either cause an injury to the patient or even death in some cases.
Medical law suits are filed by the plaintiff or a family member.
Our country has one of the best medical systems in the world. Despite this, every year thousands of people sustain injuries or wrongful deaths due to the negligence of hospitals, doctors, nurses and other staff members. Most people do not know where to begin when they have been injured or harmed by the medical community.
It is common in a medical malpractice lawsuit that outside medical experts be consulted to assist in proving the medical negligence.
Common types of medical malpractice include:
- Surgical errors
- Improper diagnosis
- Failure to order necessary testing
- Prescription errors
- Nursing home neglect
Even experienced medical personnel make mistakes that lead to injuries or death.
