Medical Malpractice FAQs

Q: I had a "bad result" and I am convinced my doctor made a mistake: will I win my case?



It is not enough to prove that you had a poor outcome from your medical care. Most clients do not realize that even where their doctor made a mistake, more proof is needed to win the case. It is necessary to show that their doctor's negligence caused the bad outcome. If it is equally possible that something else resulted in the injury (especially natural causes) then the patient cannot win a malpractice case. It is very important to carefully review all possible causes, and have an expert physician in the field study the case to make sure that a client will be able to satisfy this important burden of proof.
