When healthcare professionals fail to provide an acceptable standard of care, the consequences can be devastating.
When you place your trust in a medical professional, you expect to receive competent and effective care. Unfortunately, medical errors are a leading cause of injury and death in the United States, and when a healthcare provider fails to meet the standard of care, the consequences can be devastating.

Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider—whether a doctor, nurse, surgeon, or other medical professional—fails to provide the standard of care that a reasonably skilled professional in the same field would provide under similar circumstances. This failure can result in injury, illness, or even death. Common examples of medical malpractice include:

To succeed in a medical malpractice case, the plaintiff must prove four key elements:
The first element requires establishing that a doctor-patient relationship existed, meaning the healthcare provider owed you a duty of care. This relationship is usually straightforward to prove, as it typically exists whenever a healthcare provider agrees to treat a patient.
Next, you must prove that the healthcare provider breached the duty of care by failing to act as a reasonably competent provider would under similar circumstances. This breach can occur through actions (such as performing a surgery incorrectly) or omissions (such as failing to diagnose a condition).
Causation is often the most challenging element to prove in a medical malpractice case. You must demonstrate that the healthcare provider’s breach of duty directly caused your injury or worsened your condition. This typically requires expert testimony to establish the connection between the provider’s negligence and the harm suffered.
Finally, you must prove that the breach of duty resulted in damages, which can include physical pain, emotional suffering, additional medical bills, lost income, and other financial losses. The more comprehensive the evidence of damages, the stronger your case will be.
Victims of medical malpractice may be entitled to a range of compensation, including:
