In these types of cases, you must be able to prove that the medical provider did not adhere to or meet the “standard of care” in performing your surgery.
Additionally, you will need to be able to prove that this negligence, or failure to meet the standard of care, caused the injury or death.
In addition to surgical errors, some other examples of potential medical malpractice include, but are not limited to:[/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”12″][fancy-ul icon_type=”font_icon” icon=”icon-minus-sign” color=”Accent-Color” alignment=”left” spacing=”default” link_style=”default”]
- Childbirth injuries;
- Hospital management;
- Pharmacy errors; and
- Misdiagnosis;
Sometimes, medical malpractice can be traced to not only the medical provider but also to the hospital or healthcare system. In these situations, you may be able to pursue legal action against multiple parties.
