Medical malpractice lawsuits can be complicated. As a result, it is important to be comprehensive and lay everything out on the floor with your medical malpractice attorney so that all defendants that may be liable for your injuries be named and held accountable for their part in the negligence that led to said injuries. Hospitals are huge, multilayered entities and it is possible to have more than 2 defendants in any medical malpractice lawsuit, including people you wouldn’t necessarily think of as being in the medical professions such as doctor’s assistants and receptionists. Your goal when it comes to filing a medical malpractice lawsuit is to get compensation to the fullest extent of the law so that you are able to get the medical attention you need as well as reimbursed for any costs such as lost wages and pain and suffering in order to be made whole at the end of the legal exercise.

To start with, it is important to establish the validity of any medical malpractice claim. In order to have a valid claim, there must be a doctor-patient relationship established, which gives rise to what’s called duty of care. In addition, we as your best medical malpractice lawyers must show that the medical professional breached this duty of care, and that it is this breach that led to your injuries for which you are seeking damages, economic, or non-economic.
