Medical Malpractice FAQ






Why should I obtain a medical malpractice lawyer?

A medical malpriactice claim can be extremely complex and difficult to handle alone. They require detailed investigations, review of all medical records, detailed forms and contacts between yourself and the insurance companies and/or insurance adjusters. A medical malpractice also requires a dedication of time and experience to insure that absolutely no detail is missed, or you may not receive the settlement that you deserve. 

To insure that you get the most out of your medical malpractice injury claim, you should see the counsel of an experienced medical malpractice attorney. Your medical malpractice attorney will handle the insurance companies and every detail of your claim. He or she will review all the facts and try to recover the best possible compensation for all your possible losses. Losses that could include present and future medical bills, loss of wages, permanent disability, and pain and suffering.

What can I file a medical malpractice or negligence claim for?

Any time you are in the care of a medical professional or facility, a medical malpractice or medical negligence injury can occur. There is a wide variety of injuries that can constitute as a medical malpractice or negligence injury. A few of those injuries could include wrongful death, cerebral  or erbs palsy, a failure to diagnose, brain injuries, surgical errors, and Hypoxia (lack of oxygen).





I signed a consent form. Can I still file a medical malpractice lawsuit?

Yes. A consent form is not the same as a waiver. A signed consent form states that you understand the risks associated with your procedure, but it does not mean that the doctor or medical professional has a license to commit medical malpractice. If you suspect that you are a victim of medical malpractice, then you should speak with an experienced medical malpractice attorney immediately. 





How long do I have to file my medical malpractice claim?

Each state has a statute of limitations regarding the amount of time in which you can file your medical malpractice claim and recover damages. If you wait too long to file your medical malpractice claim, it may become no longer applicable and you'll no longer be able to recover any of the compensation you were once entitled to. It is crucial that if you have been involved in a medical malpractice or negligence injury, that you obtain a knowledgeable attorney immediately.
