How to File a medical malpractice lawyer Malpractice Case

If a patient discovers that a foreign object like surgical clamps, is still inside her body after gall bladder surgery could file a medical malpractice lawsuit. A successful claim must establish the legal aspects of medical negligence: duty, deviance from this duty, direct causes, and injury.

Our clients must establish a direct connection between the breach of duty and the injury. This is referred to as the proximate reason.

The reason for injury

A medical malpractice lawsuit can be filed by the person who suffered the injury or a legal representative. Depending on the circumstances, this may be the spouse of the patient, an adult child or parent, guardian ad-litem or administrator or executor of the estate of the deceased patient. In a case of medical malpractice the defendant is the health care provider. This could be a nurse, doctor, therapist or any other health care professional.

Expert testimony is often required in cases of malpractice. Medical experts must provide evidence to prove that the healthcare provider performed his duties in accordance with the standard of medical care within their specific area of expertise. They also have to testify to the harm resulting from the doctor's actions or inactions.

Injury caused by negligence and mistakes can be devastating. A misdiagnosis could have grave consequences, like a life-threatening condition. Other kinds of injuries include performing surgery on the wrong body part or putting instruments inside the patient during surgery.

The patient must establish four legal elements in a malpractice case that include a duty owed to the patient by the physician; a breach of this obligation; a harm caused by the breach and the resulting damages. In certain states, such as New York, the law places a limit on the amount that can be awarded for the malpractice claim.

Causation

The injury element is called the causation. It is one of most crucial aspects in a medical malpractice claim. To establish causation, the plaintiff must prove that they suffered an injury on a balance of probabilities due to due to the negligence of the doctor. This can be a challenging task for a number of reasons.

A lot of the injuries that form the basis for a medical negligence suit result from long-term conditions or ongoing conditions that existed prior to when treatment began. The time period for filing a medical malpractice lawsuit can be extended for a number of years and injuries may develop slowly.

In these cases it can be difficult to prove that one particular medical professional's failure to adhere to the standards of care caused the injury. However, the aggrieved patient could be able to use the evidence collected by the attorney, such as medical records and expert testimony.

During the discovery process, which is an integral part of the legal process for preparation for trial, your lawyer can seek disclosure of expert testimony as well as other documents from defense attorneys of the defendants. The doctor who is representing the case will be asked to testify in deposition. This is a statement which is under the oath. Your lawyer can challenge the doctor's findings and cross-examine them. The jury will decide whether the plaintiff has proved all the elements of the case including breach of duty, breach of contract and causation.

Negligence

The plaintiff must convince jurors, when bringing a claim for medical malpractice to show that it is more likely that the doctor did not fulfill his or her duties as physician and that the mistakes led to injuries. The plaintiff's lawyer must prove this using evidence gathered through pretrial discovery, which entails the disclosure of documents, including medical records from all parties who are involved in the lawsuit. This process also includes swearing statements that are recorded and used at trial.

A doctor has breached their professional duty when they did something that reasonable and prudent doctors would not have done under similar circumstances. However it must be established that the breach directly caused the injury to the patient. This is known as causation or proximate causes. Patients may visit the hospital to have a hernia fixed, however, they end up having their gall bladder removed. This is medical negligence because the removal did not benefit the patient.

Medical malpractice lawsuits must be filed within a certain time limit, known as the statute of limitations. This differs from state to state. The person who suffered the injury must demonstrate that the treatment was substandard and resulted in injury, and after that they must show what compensation they are entitled to.

Damages

If medical negligence has caused you to suffer injury, you deserve to be compensated. At Scaffidi & Associates, we can assist you to receive an adequate and fair amount of compensation for your loss.

The first step in a lawsuit is to make a complaint and serve it or summons, as well as other documents on all defendants. The parties are involved in discovery. It is a process where documents and statements are made public under an oath. Medical records and notes of a doctor are typically requested during discovery.

In most states, you must prove four things in order to be compensated for the injuries caused by medical malpractice such as a duty due to the healthcare provider; a breach of that obligation; a causal connection between the breach and the patient's injury and damages resulting from the injury. If your attorney can prove all these aspects of a medical negligence claim, you will have an enviable case.

In certain instances the court can make punitive damages available, which are intended to penalize the wrongdoer and deter others from engaging in the same conduct. But, this isn't often the case in medical malpractice cases, as courts require specific proof of malice to give these extraordinary awards.
