What Qualifies as Medical Malpractice?
Medical malpractice law deals with mistakes, negligence, or wrongdoing by a medical professional or facility. Medical malpractice cases can include negligent care or treatment, errors or mistakes in medical procedures and surgeries, failure to diagnose, mistakes in medication or dosage, inadequate credentialing, training, or supervision, and lack of informed consent. These cases often have lasting impacts on the quality of life for the victim and, in the most unfortunate of circumstances, can even result in death.
