Malpractice

If you were injured as a result of improper treatment by the physician or hospital, you may be the victim of medical malpractice. The determination that malpractice has occurred is based on a comparison of other physicians in the same field of medicine and whether the treatment you received deviates from proper care as compared to other heathcare providers.

Medical malpractice does not occur every time there is a bad outcome from treatment. Each case must be evaluated on its facts.
