Patients put their trust in physicians, nurses, and other members of the healthcare staff in hospitals and doctor’s offices across the state. Most of these professionals have many years of education and experience to provide high-quality care.
However, all of these providers are human, which means that they are prone to accidents and mistakes. When these errors occur, the result can be devastating for the patient and their family. Longer recovery times, prolonged pain, and even wrongful death may result from the negligence of a medical professional.
When something goes wrong during the treatment of a patient, then a claim against medical malpractice insurance may be made. Unfortunately, insurance companies prefer not to pay out these claims. If they are forced to make a payment, they may make an offer that is not sufficient to cover the victim’s medical bills, let alone their pain and suffering.
In these situations, it is vital to contact Your Insurance Attorney. We will negotiate with the medical malpractice insurance company and can file a lawsuit if one becomes necessary.
When any healthcare professional, hospital, clinic, or other care facility causes an injury to a patient through a negligent act or omission, they may be guilty of medical malpractice.
A medical malpractice attorney must establish certain facts to make a successful claim.
The first of these facts is a violation of the standard of care. When care does not meet these standards, there may be a case for medical malpractice.
Additionally, a medical malpractice attorney must prove that a standard of care violation caused an injury.
The other factor that we seek to establish is significant damages from the injury. Damages may include substantial medical bills, loss of income, disability, unusual pain or suffering, and hardship.
