Medical negligence occurs when a healthcare professional fails to provide the expected standard of care and the patient suffers harm as a result. This differs from medical malpractice in that medical malpractice requires proof of intent, while medical negligence is based on a failure to meet the expected standard of care.
When choosing a medical negligence case, lawyers will look at the patient’s medical history, the treatments they received, the outcome of those treatments, and the actions of the healthcare professional during the course of treatment. They will then determine whether the standard of care was met and whether the patient suffered harm as a result.
Choosing the right lawyer is essential. It is important to find lawyers who deal with medical negligence, have experience in this area of law, and maintain a proven track record of success in obtaining favorable verdicts and settlements for their clients. In addition, you want to make sure that the lawyer has the resources necessary to handle a complex medical negligence case.
