Medical malpractice occurs when a physician or other health care provider violates the standard of care in treating a patient. The standard of care includes the physician's, or other health care provider's, obligation to treat the patient, consult with other physicians, keep adequate patient records, and communicate any potential risks to the patient. Physicians are responsible for providing correct action, but they may also be held responsible for failure to take appropriate action.
It is very important that your attorney has extensive experience in medical malpractice cases. Since these cases are often the most complicated, it is also very important that you maintain detailed records and documentation of the events as they occur.
