Fight for Justice: Our Florida Medical Malpractice Law Team Will Help You Get the Compensation You Deserve

Medical malpractice is a type of lawsuit that targets medical professionals, including doctors, nurses, hospitals, and other healthcare workers, responsible for negligent care. Negligence by doctors is a common cause of medical malpractice claims. While complications and risks are expected during medical treatment, it is crucial to seek the help of a Florida medical malpractice attorney to determine whether your injuries are part of normal complications or medical malpractice.

To establish a medical malpractice case, you must prove your doctor’s negligence by showing several elements: duty of care, breach of duty, causation, and damages and losses. First, you must demonstrate that a professional relationship exists between you and the medical professional. The doctor must owe you a duty of reasonable care, adhering to professional standards, to provide reasonably competent medical care. The standard of care outlines how a patient should be cared for at all times, and any deviation from it constitutes a breach of duty.

Causation can be challenging to establish, as you must link the doctor’s actions or omissions to your injuries. A skilled medical malpractice attorney can help you demonstrate this link and show how the physician’s actions and omissions caused your preventable injuries. Finally, you must show the court evidence of your injuries and specific economic losses, such as medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering, to receive compensation.
