Medical Malpractice\Wrongful Death
If you believe you or a loved one has suffered an injury at the hands of your healthcare provider(s) or while a patient at a healthcare facility, you may be entitled to monetary compensation for medical malpractice. Malpractice can occur in various forms, although the most common medical claims range from misdiagnosis to botched surgery to inadequate treatment (whether emergency care, inpatient treatment, or outpatient treatment) to failure to obtain proper consent. The most common psychiatric claims range from improper involuntary commitment, improper discharge, failure to prevent suicide, and\or failure to adequately treat a mental health condition resulting in harm to self or others.
If a loved one has died due to a provider’s negligence, moreover, not only does your loved one’s estate have a claim, you may also have a wrongful death claim against the provider(s) as a result of experiencing their loss.
Did You Suffer a Compensable Injury?
In a medical malpractice or wrongful death claim, the types of injury and the value attributed to such injury varies based on a number of factors. There are two types of injuries: physical and emotional. Some physical injuries may be temporary, but nonetheless leave emotional scars long after the physical injury has healed. Some physical injuries may be internal only (like back or nerve injuries). So while you look healthy on the outside, you are suffering from frequent symptoms on that impact your daily life. Other injuries may be more obvious and permanent, life-shattering injuries, such as a catastrophic injury. A catastrophic injury results in long term disability that changes your life, potentially disrupts your ability to work or earn a living, and frequently involves long term care for your injuries.
