MEDICAL MALPRACTICE
- Medical malpractice and/or nursing home abuse occurs when a patient is harmed by a doctor/nurse (or other medical professional) who fails to competently perform his or her medical duties.
- To prove that medical malpractice occurred, we must be able to show all of these things: A doctor-patient relationship existed; the doctor was negligent; the doctor’s negligence caused the injury; and the injury led to specific damages.
- Our medical chronologies give you a timeline of events surrounding these allegations. We can also provide topic chronologies that focus on specific areas of concern.
- Some of the common medical malpractice cases include misdiagnosis, failure or delay to diagnose, surgical errors, medication errors, adverse reactions to drugs and drug interactions, errors in medical procedures etc.
