Medical Malpractice

Serving Central Florida, Orlando and Tampa, FL

When you or a loved one are injured or die as the result of the negligence of a health care provider such as a doctor or hospital, it may be the result of medical malpractice. By law, all health care providers must provide care at the level of the standard of care required by their field. These claims are subject to numerous rules and requirements that are not common to other types of serious injury claims and can involve a variety of medical specialties and subspecialties, including but not limited to, obstetrics, emergency medicine, neurology, cardiology, oncology, and pediatrics. If a health care provider does not meet this standard of care, they may be responsible for the damages caused, including pain and suffering to the individual, loss of wages and payment of ancillary medical bills. If death results, the mental pain and suffering of the immediate family survivors may also be included as an element of damages.
