MEDICAL MALPRACTICE LAWYER SERVING SARASOTA COUNTY, BRADENTON, LAKEWOOD RANCH, NORTH PORT, VENICE, & THROUGHOUT THE STATE OF FLORIDA

When you are sick or injured, you rely on the expertise and skill of a trained doctor to help you recover. Unfortunately, it is a reality that everyone makes mistakes, including doctors.

When a doctor acts below the standard of care expected of a medical professional, the results can be both serious and devastating. Medical malpractice can arise from a variety of situations, including:

  • Failure to diagnose or misdiagnosis
  • Incorrect prescriptions
  • Surgical mistakes
  • Retained sponges and other objects
  • Improper anesthesia
  • Birth injuries
  • Pharmacy errors
  • Other acts falling below the standard of care

The victim of medical malpractice has the right to recover financial compensation for their injury. However, the process of presenting a medical malpractice claim in Florida can be complex and difficult without the assistance of an experienced attorney.

How To Building Your Medical Malpractice Claim

In order to pursue a claim for medical malpractice, the victim must provide timely notice of the negligent care to the provider and other relevant entities, and must obtain the opinion of a qualified expert that the care rendered by the provider fell below the standard of care. Additionally, various laws impose complete bars on bringing a medical malpractice action if the claim is not filed within certain time frames.

Therefore, it is important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible if you believe that you or a loved one has been the victim of medical malpractice.
