Florida Medical Malpractice Attorneys
Do I have a Florida Medical Malpractice Case?
Not every bad outcome in medicine is the result of medical malpractice or negligence. Almost all medical procedures have some amount of risk, and some illnesses cannot be cured despite the best medical care and treatment. But when a minor or routine procedure in Florida results in serious injuries, such as paralysis, loss of limb, organ damage or death, it is clear that something went horribly wrong. In such cases, it is important to determine whether the medical providers missed or ignored warning signs, or failed to order the appropriate tests. It is time to speak with a Florida medical malpractice lawyer.
Due to the complexity and expense associated with medical malpractice claims, our threshold for taking on Florida medical malpractice claims is high — there must be a disabling, life-threatening or fatal outcome, not merely a mistake that caused no lasting harm. In order to be successful in your claim, we must prove that the doctor did not do what other physicians, nurses or other hospital staff, would have reasonably done in the same or similar situation.
Determining whether you have a medical malpractice claim requires a detailed review of your medical records and, often, consultation with a medical professional. As such, we will need to obtain and review your medical and hospital records. If, after reviewing the medical records, we are of the opinion that there is some indication of malpractice, we will proceed with retaining a medical expert to provide a preliminary opinion. In order to advance your claim for medical malpractice, it is necessary to have a medical expert opinions from a physician licensed in the same or a similar specialty concluding that the treating physician or hospital was negligent.
