Understanding Medical Malpractice and Patient Advocacy
Medical malpractice refers to professional negligence by act or omission by a healthcare provider where the treatment provided falls below the accepted standard of practice in the medical community and causes injury or death to the patient. It encompasses a range of potential misconducts but typically involves a medical error, which can happen in diagnosis, medication dosage, health management, treatment, or aftercare.
Key Components of Medical Malpractice
To establish a case for medical malpractice, typically, certain core elements must be proven:
- Duty of Care: The healthcare provider owed a duty of care to the patient.
- Breach of Duty: The healthcare provider breached that standard of care by acting or failing to act in a certain way.
- Causation: The breach of duty caused an injury to the patient.
- Damages: The injury led to specific damages, whether physical, financial, or emotional.
- Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis
- Childbirth injuries
- Medication errors
- Surgery errors
- Anesthesia errors
- Failure to treat
- Failure to follow up or monitor the patient

Due to the complexity of intersecting medical and legal matters, medical malpractice law is a highly specialized field requiring lawyers who are experienced in navigating both healthcare regulations and legal procedures. Medical malpractice law seeks to maintain a balance between patient rights and the challenging realities of medical practice. It provides a legal avenue for patients to receive compensation for injuries caused by substandard medical care while setting a deterrent for healthcare providers against negligent practices. And the attorneys at The Pagan Law Firm are well-versed in medical malpractice law and how to get the best results for their clients.
