Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare professional deviates from the standards of care in the medical community, resulting in harm to a patient.

At SELPH LAW, we understand the challenges and the intricacies involved in medical malpractice claims.

Understanding Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice can manifest in various forms, including surgical errors, misdiagnoses, delayed diagnoses, birth injuries, and medication mistakes, among others. Each case is unique, with its own set of circumstances and medical details. Identifying malpractice requires a comprehensive evaluation of medical records, consultations with medical experts, and a deep understanding of healthcare standards.
The Impact of Medical Malpractice
The consequences of medical malpractice extend beyond physical injuries. Victims often face significant emotional distress, financial burdens due to additional medical bills, and the loss of income. The impact can be devastating, affecting not just the victim but their families as well.
The Legal Path Forward
Navigating a medical malpractice claim involves several critical steps:
1. Identifying Malpractice: The first step is determining whether malpractice occurred. This involves reviewing medical records and consulting with experts to ascertain if the standard of care was breached.
2. Filing a Claim: Once malpractice is established, the next step is filing a claim. This legal document outlines the nature of the malpractice and the damages sought.
3. Discovery Phase: Both sides gather evidence, including medical records, expert testimonies, and depositions.
4. Negotiation and Settlement: Many malpractice cases are resolved through negotiations before reaching trial. An experienced attorney can secure a fair settlement that covers medical costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
5. Trial: If a settlement cannot be reached, the case may go to trial, where a judge or jury will determine the outcome.
