What is Medical Negligence?

Medical negligence (medical malpractice) is a type of personal injury claim that arises when a healthcare provider fails to meet the accepted “standard of care,” resulting in harm to the patient.

How do I know if I Have a Medical Malpractice Case?

The answer can be complicated if you’re wondering whether you have a medical malpractice case. Such cases often require review by experts in various medical specialties before determining whether the healthcare provider deviated from the accepted standard of care or if some other factor caused the bad healthcare result. We employ nurses who help us evaluate potential medical negligence cases.

Can I get copies of my Medical Records?

Federal law entitles you to obtain copies of your medical records. However, the entity providing those records is entitled to charge a “reasonable” fee for materials and time spent copying the records for you.

What types of damages can be recovered in a medical negligence action?

In a medical negligence action, you may be able to recover various types of damages, including:

• Past economic damages (such as medical bills and lost earnings)
• Past non-economic damages (such as pain and suffering, including emotional distress and loss of enjoyment of life)
• Future economic damages (such as anticipated medical bills and lost earnings over the course of your work expectancy)
• Future non-economic damages (such as future pain and suffering, including emotional distress and loss of enjoyment of life).
