Malpractice Litigation
Professionals may be liable if their actions or inactions deviated from the standards of their profession and caused serious harm to their patient or client. Different types of professional malpractice are as follows:
- Hospital malpractice (Emergency room errors, surgical errors, birth injury, misdiagnosis, lab error, etc.)
- Physician malpractice (failure to diagnose, misdiagnosis, failure to properly monitor treatment regimes, failure to administer and monitor drug, etc.)
- Nursing home malpractice
- Pharmaceutical malpractice
- Legal malpractice (a missed deadline to file a lawsuit or poor representation or other errors)
- Accountant malpractice (Negligent tax preparation)
- Other professional malpractice
Any licensed professional can be sued for malpractice under qualifying circumstances: doctors, nurses, surgeons, psychologists, architects, engineers, bankers, securities brokers, real estate agents. Let us determine if you have a claim based on the facts of the situation and your loss.
Malpractice claims require a high level of proof that the professional or organization made a substantial error, and that the victim was directly and substantially harmed. For example, to succeed in a legal malpractice claim, you must show that you would have won the underlying case if not for the attorney's error. Medical malpractice cases require extensive medical record research and another doctor in that field to attest that the standard of care was breached. Malpractice claims can be very expensive to pursue, first it must be determined if there is a provable claim and second it must be decided whether it will be cost-effective to prosecute the claim.
We have the experience and resources to pursue viable claims. Contact our Scottsdale office today at (602) 910-6144 for a free case evaluation.
