Medical Malpractice

Medical malpractice lawsuits are some of the most sensitive lawsuits that we deal with here at Welch Law Firm. It occurs when a patient has been harmed by a medical professional who fails to act appropriately in their medical duties. There are rules about medical malpractice that vary depending on where you are, but there are some basics that you must be able to prove before a case can be brought to court. These include:

  • Proving that you have a doctor-patient relationship. You must show that you hired the doctor and they agreed to treat you.
  • Proving negligence. This is more complex than simply being unhappy with the given treatment. They have to have been negligent with the treatment or diagnosis and have caused harm in a way that a good doctor would not have.
  • Proving damages. You can’t sue for malpractice if you did not suffer harm as a result of the negligence of the doctor.

Medical malpractice is not something that you can wait to bring to court, so if you are concerned that you have a case, it’s best to call us as your personal injury attorney right away.
