Medical malpractice can have life-altering consequences, and our experienced attorneys are here to protect your rights.
Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider’s negligent actions or omissions deviate from the standard of care, harming the patient. The standard of care refers to the level of competence and professionalism that a reasonably skilled medical practitioner would provide under similar circumstances. When this standard is not met, the results can devastate patients and their families.
Examples of medical malpractice include:
If you suspect you have been a victim of medical malpractice, it’s crucial to act quickly. California law places strict deadlines on filing such claims, known as the statute of limitations.
1. Misdiagnosis or Delayed Diagnosis
Failure to diagnose a condition correctly or promptly can lead to severe complications or even death. Examples include:
Misdiagnosis not only delays necessary treatment but can also result in patients undergoing unnecessary treatments that may have harmful side effects.
2. Surgical Errors
Mistakes during surgery can lead to serious injuries, infections, or unnecessary procedures. Common surgical errors include:
Patients entrust their lives to surgeons, and a single error can lead to permanent disability or even death. Addressing surgical errors is a critical focus of our medical malpractice practice.
3. Medication Errors
Improper prescribing, dispensing, or administering medications can cause severe harm. These errors may involve:
Medication errors are among the most preventable types of medical malpractice and often result from communication breakdowns or inadequate systems within healthcare facilities.
4. Birth Injuries
Medical negligence during labor and delivery can result in life-altering injuries for the newborn or the mother. Examples include:
Birth injuries can have long-term consequences, requiring extensive medical care and impacting the family’s quality of life.
5. Failure to Obtain Informed Consent
Doctors are required to inform patients about the risks, benefits, and alternatives of a procedure before obtaining consent. Failure to do so can result in malpractice claims if the patient suffers harm.
Patients have the right to make informed decisions about their care. When this right is violated, the consequences can be devastating.
