Basic Requirements For A Medical Malpractice Claim

Rules surrounding medical malpractice lawsuits vary state to state and hospitals employ skilled defense teams. In order to pursue maximum compensation, it is imperative to retain the services of an experienced Clearwater medical malpractice lawyer!

A medical malpractice claim must have certain elements in place in order to be pursued. Attorney Bryan Caulfield can thoroughly investigate the details surrounding your injury and build a solid case for your compensation. With his background as a Clearwater personal injury lawyer, he is more than prepared to navigate even the most complex claims.

• Generally speaking, a medical malpractice claim must have the following in place:
• Proof of a doctor-patient relationship: This means you formally hired the doctor, and didn’t just overhear a physician’s advice in an informal setting.
• Proof of physician negligence: This goes beyond patient dissatisfaction. The physician must have deviated from standards of care in order to prove negligent.
• Proof of injury caused by negligence: It must be proved that the patient was injured due to the medical negligence and not due to a pre-existing condition.
• Proof that injury led to specific damage: The injury must have elicited physical pain, mental pain, further medical bills, and/or lost wages to be eligible for compensation.

Common types of medical malpractice include a failure to diagnose properly, improper treatment, and failure to warn a patient of risk. In most states, claims of medical malpractice must be addressed fairly quickly. In Florida, this statute of limitations is two years.
