A patient who finds an object foreign to the body such as surgical clamps in her body following gall bladder surgery could file a lawsuit for medical negligence. A successful claim must establish the legal aspects of medical negligence: duty, deviation from this duty, direct causes, and injury.
Our clients must establish a direct connection between the breach of duty, and the injury. This is known as proximate cause.
Causes of Injury
A medical malpractice claim may be filed either by the person who was injured or an attorney. This could be a spouse, adult child, parent, guardian or administrator of the estate of a deceased patient, based on the circumstances. The defendant in a lawsuit for medical malpractice is the health care provider. This could be an accredited nurse, doctor or therapist.
Expert testimony is often required in cases of malpractice. Medical experts are required to testify whether or the medical professional followed the standard of care in their specific field. They also have to testify to the damage caused by the actions or inactions of a doctor.
Accidents caused by negligence or negligence can be very serious. For instance, a misdiagnosis of a health issue could result in life-threatening consequences. Other types of injuries include operating on the wrong body part or leaving surgical instruments inside the patient.
In order to prove a malpractice claim, the patient must prove four legal elements: a duty that the doctor owed them; a breach of this duty; a resultant injury and damages. In some states, like New York, the law puts a limit on amount of money that could be awarded for an action for malpractice.
Causation
The injury element, also referred to as causation, is one of the most important elements in medical malpractice cases. To establish causation, the plaintiff must prove that they sustained the injury on a balance of probabilities as a result due to the negligence of the doctor. This can be a challenging task due to a variety reasons.
For instance, a lot of injuries that are the subject of a medical-malpractice lawsuit stem from long-term or ongoing conditions that were already present prior to the time of treatment. Often the statute of limitations for a claim involving medical malpractice extends over a number of years, and the injuries may develop slowly.
In these instances it is often difficult to prove that one particular medical professional's breach of standards of care caused the injury. The attorney could have gathered evidence, including expert testimony and medical records that the patient who was injured can use.
During the discovery process, which is an integral part of the legal process for prepping for trial, your lawyer could seek disclosure of expert testimony and other evidence from lawyers of the defendants. The doctor who is representing the case will be asked to appear in deposition. This is a testimony that's given under the oath. Your lawyer can challenge doctor's findings and cross-examine them. The jury will decide whether the plaintiff has proved the elements of the case, including duty, breach and causation.
Negligence
When a medical negligence claim is filed the plaintiff must to convince the jury that it was more likely than not that the doctor committed a breach of professional duties and those violations caused harm. The plaintiff's attorney has to demonstrate this through evidence gathered during discovery. This includes seeking documents, such as medical records from all parties involved in a lawsuit. This process also includes swearing statements that are recorded and used at trial.
A doctor has violated their professional obligation if they did something reasonable and prudent doctors would not have done under similar circumstances. However it must be proven that the breach directly caused the injury to the patient. This is known as causation or the proximate cause. A patient may go to the hospital in order to have a hernia repaired, and instead, have their gall bladder removed. This is medical negligence because the procedure did not benefit the patient.
Medical malpractice lawsuits must be filed within a legally prescribed time frame, known as the statute of limitations, which is different for each state. The victim must prove that the care provided was substandard and resulted in injury, and then demonstrate the amount of compensation he or her deserves.
Damages
You are entitled to compensation for any injuries you've suffered as a result of medical negligence. Scaffidi & Associates can help you receive fair and full compensation for your losses.
The first step is to file and serve a summons and complaint to all defendants named in the lawsuit. The parties engage in discovery. This is a process in which documents and declarations are made public under oath. During discovery, medical malpractice lawsuit records and doctor's notes are typically requested.
In most states, you must demonstrate four elements in order to be compensated for injuries incurred by medical malpractice such as a duty due to the healthcare provider in breach of that duty; a causal connection between the breach and the injury suffered by the patient; and damages that flow from the injury. If your lawyer can prove all these elements in a medical negligence claim, you will have a convincing case.
In certain instances, a court may decide to award punitive damages. These are intended to punish the offender and deter others from committing the same offense. This is rare however, particularly in medical malpractice cases. The courts must be able to prove evidence of malice before they may give these extraordinary damages.
