A medical care professional is required to exercise the skill and learning applied under the circumstances by the average member of the profession, in the given community, when providing medical care.
A successful medical malpractice claim requires that the injured party prove that a doctor or medical care professional acted contrary to appropriate medical standards and that the doctor’s conduct was a direct cause of the injury. A medical care professional is not negligent simply because his/her efforts were unsuccessful. Rather, the injured party bears the burden of proving that the medical care professional failed to exercise the required standard of care, and that the failure was the cause of the patient’s injuries.
A medical malpractice claim requires expert testimony from a reliable health care provider. Our attorneys are experienced in finding and working with appropriate experts and, over the years, have developed a network to locate such experts.
