Medical Malpractice/Medical Negligence

Poor medical care can have a devastating, irreversible effect on people and their families. When a physician negligently fails to properly treat a medical condition, and the negligent act or omission is the cause of a new or aggravated injury to the patient - this is medical malpractice. The negligence in medical malpractice cases can occur in a variety of situations including:

• treating a pregnant women or delivering a child, resulting in birth defects such as cerebral palsy
• a delay/failure in diagnosing a disease or illness such as cancer
• a surgical or anesthesia-related mishap during an operative procedure
• misuse of prescription drugs or a medical device or implant
