Medical Malpractice Lawsuits
Attorneys hold a fiduciary relationship with their clients and are required to behave with care, diligence and expertise. But, as with all professionals attorneys make mistakes.
Some mistakes made by an attorney are legal malpractice. To prove legal malpractice, an aggrieved party must show obligation, breach, causation and damages. Let's look at each of these aspects.
Duty
Medical professionals and doctors take an oath to apply their knowledge and expertise to treat patients, and not to cause further harm. Duty of care is the basis for a patient's right to compensation for injuries caused by medical malpractice. Your lawyer can help determine if the actions of your doctor violated this duty of care, and whether those breaches caused injury or illness to you.
To prove a duty to care, your lawyer needs to show that a medical professional has an agreement with you, in which they have a fiduciary obligation to exercise reasonable expertise and care. Proving that this relationship existed may require evidence such as the records of your doctor and patient eyewitness accounts and expert testimony from doctors who have similar qualifications, experience and education.
Your lawyer will also need to prove that the medical professional violated their duty of caring by not adhering to the accepted standards in their area of expertise. This is often known as negligence. Your lawyer will be able to compare what the defendant did with what a reasonable individual would do in the same situation.
In addition, your lawyer must show that the defendant's breach of duty directly led to injury or loss to you. This is called causation. Your lawyer will make use of evidence like your doctor or patient documents, witness testimony and expert testimony to prove that the defendant's failure to comply with the standard of care was the primary cause of the injury or loss to you.
Breach
A doctor is responsible for the duties of care that conform to the standards of medical professional practice. If a doctor fails meet these standards and fails to do so causes injury, then medical malpractice and negligence may occur. Expert evidence from medical professionals who have similar training, certifications as well as experience and qualifications can help determine the standard of care in a particular situation. Federal and state laws and institute policies also help define what doctors must provide for specific kinds of patients.
To be successful in a malpractice case the evidence must prove that the doctor violated his or her duty to care and that the violation was the primary cause of an injury. This is referred to in legal terms as the causation factor and it is crucial that it be established. For instance in the event that a damaged arm requires an xray, the doctor should properly place the arm and put it in a cast to ensure proper healing. If the doctor was unable to perform this task and the patient was left with an irreparable loss of use of that arm, then malpractice could have occurred.
Causation
Legal malpractice claims based on evidence that the lawyer made mistakes that caused financial losses for the client. For instance the lawyer does not file an action within the timeframe of limitations, leading to the case being lost forever and the victim could bring legal malpractice lawsuits.
It is important to recognize that not all errors made by lawyers are a sign of wrong. Mistakes in strategy and planning are not usually considered to be malpractice attorneys have a lot of latitude to make decisions based on their judgments as long as they are reasonable.
The law also gives attorneys considerable leeway to fail to conduct discovery on behalf of the behalf of clients, so provided that the decision was not unreasonable or negligent. Inability to find important documents or facts, such as medical reports or witness statements or medical reports, could be an instance of legal malpractice. Other examples of malpractice include a failure to add certain claims or defendants, such as forgetting to submit a survival count in a wrongful death lawsuit or the frequent and prolonged failure to communicate with the client.
It is also important to remember that it must be proven that if it weren't for the lawyer's negligence, the plaintiff would have won the case. In the event that it is not, the plaintiff's claim for malpractice will be denied. This requirement makes the process of bringing legal malpractice lawsuits difficult. It's crucial to hire an experienced attorney.
Damages
In order to prevail in a legal malpractice attorney lawsuit, plaintiffs must show financial losses incurred by the actions of an attorney. This must be shown in a lawsuit using evidence such as expert testimony, correspondence between client and attorney as well as billing records and other evidence. In addition the plaintiff must show that a reasonable lawyer could have prevented the harm caused by the negligence of the attorney. This is referred to as proximate causation.
It can happen in a variety of ways. Some of the more common kinds of malpractice are the failure to adhere to a deadline, which includes the statute of limitations, a failure to conduct a check on conflicts or other due diligence check on the case, not applying law to a client's circumstance, breaching a fiduciary duty (i.e. mixing funds from a trust account with the attorney's own accounts as well as failing to communicate with the client are all examples of malpractice.
In the majority of medical malpractice cases the plaintiff is seeking compensation damages. These compensations compensate the victim for out-of pocket expenses and losses such as medical and hospitals bills, costs of equipment to aid in recovery and lost wages. Victims can also claim non-economic damages, such as pain and discomfort, loss of enjoyment of their lives, as well as emotional stress.
In a lot of legal malpractice cases there are claims for punitive or compensatory damages. The former compensates the victim for losses caused by the attorney's negligence, while the latter is designed to discourage future malpractice by the defendant.
