What Is Considered Medical Malpractice?
Medical malpractice cases are complex and difficult to prove. Under Illinois law, medical providers cannot be held liable unless they deviated from the standard of care of the local medical community. Health care providers, hospitals and their insurance carriers often claim that medical injuries result from known complications related to medical procedures or were simply unavoidable, and therefore they cannot be held liable. Some of the most common types of medical malpractice claims involve:
- Failure to diagnose
- Cancer misdiagnosis
- Surgical errors
- Emergency room errors
- Birth-related injuries
- Failure to obtain informed consent
- Prescription drug errors
- Nursing home negligence
Our firm has developed relationships with some of the nation’s leading medical professionals to help us determine the cause of medical injuries, as well as the long-term medical and financial consequences of those injuries. Together we will look at your case and analyze what your options are. Don’t take on the complicated legal system alone. Our attorneys are here to work with you every step of the way.
