What Is Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice is the failure to have and apply the knowledge, skills, and judgment possessed by members of the medical profession, who practice in similar communities, and under like circumstances.

To prove medical malpractice, a plaintiff must show that:

1. The doctor or other healthcare professional was negligent.
2. The negligence caused injury to the patient.
3. The malpractice caused the damages suffered by the patient.

The healthcare industry is both a blessing and a curse. As medicine has advanced, so have the risks of injury or illness. If you suffer an injury due to a doctor’s negligence, it may drain your bank accounts, ruin your quality of life, or worse… cause death. Consult with one of our attorneys to find out if you have a potential medical malpractice lawsuit that could result in your favor.
