Medical Malpractice

Many people believe medical malpractice suits may only be brought against a physician. A medical malpractice lawsuit may be lodged against a skilled nursing facility, dentist, physician, or any medical professional who failed to provide an appropriate level of care.

Some examples of medical malpractice include failure to diagnose an illness, improper medications being prescribed, or abuse of a patient in a nursing home. In each of these cases, the victim and their family members suffer because of the action, or inaction, of the responsible party.

Medical malpractice cases can be complicated and expensive and require careful investigation. For example, cases of delayed or improper diagnosis can be complicated by a person’s preexisting conditions. Other cases, such as improper prescriptions, are more straightforward and assume that the physician did not tell the patient about possible side effects of a prescription drug.
