How Do We Help With Your Medical Malpractice Lawsuit?

Winning Your Medical Malpractice Case

Not all medical mistakes are grounds for a malpractice lawsuit. You may be able to prove that your doctor made an error in your treatment, but this alone is not enough for a case.

The main factors you need to prove to win your negligence medical case are:

  • That the medical care or treatment provided was below the acceptable standard of care.
  • That the alleged negligence caused injury, harm, or death to the patient
  • The patient suffered quantifiable harm because of medical malpractice, which can include pain and suffering, loss of income, medical expenses, or other economic harm.

It is necessary to prove all these factors to win your medical malpractice case. If a doctor made a mistake but it did not result in harm to the patient, then a case cannot be filed under the law. Or, if a patient suffered harm during a medical procedure but it was not caused by a medical error, then a medical malpractice case cannot be filed. Hospitals and doctors defend every facet of a case to defeat your claim, so it is essential that there is a legal and medical basis to prove every element.
