Are you suffering from an injury, illness, or debilitating condition due to negligent or substandard medical care or treatment?  If so, you may have grounds to file a medical malpractice lawsuit.

Doctors, physicians, and all other healthcare professionals commit medical malpractice when they cause injury, harm, or death to a patient because they failed to provide the same standard of care that another medical professional would provide.  There are many different forms of medical malpractice, some of which include:

• Failure to diagnose a disease or medical condition
• Misdiagnosis a disease or medical condition
• Medication error
• Surgical error or malpractice
• Anesthesia error 
• Emergency room errors 
• Pharmacy errors
• Ordering the wrong tests

In order for a patient to win a medical malpractice lawsuit, they must be able to prove the following:

• That they were being treated by the doctor(s) and medical professional(s) named in the lawsuit, and
• The medical professional(s) acted negligently, recklessly, or below the standard of medical care in their field, and
• That the medical professional’s negligence is what caused the injury or condition to occur
