How do I Know If I Have a Valid Medical Malpractice Claim?

One of the first steps we take is to conduct a thorough review and investigation of your medical malpractice case. Our experienced attorneys and medical consultants meticulously examine your medical records to determine if there are any lapses or deviations from the proper standard of care. We will also evaluate any expert medical opinions you obtained. This allows us to assess the potential strengths and weaknesses of your claim.

Consulting Medical Experts

For cases involving complex medical issues, we consult with our network of medical experts to analyze your treatment and determine if negligence occurred. These board-certified physicians, nurses, and healthcare providers can identify mistakes that non-medical individuals may miss. Their expertise is invaluable for establishing liability in complicated malpractice matters.

Building a Compelling Case

Should your case have merit after our initial review, we will begin building a persuasive case file. Proving medical negligence requires overcoming the high burden of proof in these lawsuits. Our medical negligence legal team leaves no stone unturned in gathering all relevant evidence. We understand the importance of developing an air-tight record to demonstrate fault when defending against assertions by well-funded medical organizations.

Compiling Medical Records

We request copies of your entire medical history relevant to the incident. These records provide crucial details about treatment decisions, diagnoses, and communications between medical staff.

Conducting Witness Interviews

We may conduct interviews with any medical professionals, nurses, or others who were involved in your care. These testimonies can reveal important facts or admissions by those involved.

Negotiating the Best Resolution

Once our case is optimized, we will communicate your demands to the liable parties and their insurance providers. Many medical malpractice claims are resolved through settlement negotiations rather than trial, but we are prepared to take your case to court and fight vigorously for your fair compensation.

Demanding Fair Compensation

We calculate the full extent of economic and non-economic damages and make an aggressive opening settlement demand reflective of these losses. This sends a message we will not accept anything less than fair value for your claim.

Past and Future Medical Expenses

We determine all out-of-pocket costs for treatment, medication, assistive devices, rehabilitation, and long-term/life care needs. Our experienced team prepares meticulous life care plans outlining all projected medical and support costs.

Lost Wages

If the injury prevents or hinders work, we recover salary and compensation for job prospects deprived. Through economic analyses, we quantify lost earning capacity over complete work-life expectancy.

Pain and Suffering

No amount can replace lost health, but compensation aims to acknowledge mental/physical anguish. We help ensure adequate damages for intangible aspects of injury like ongoing soreness or loss of enjoyment.

Disfigurement or Disability

Severe injuries may result in permanent effects interfering with normal activities and enjoyment of life. Our experts diligently document mobility restrictions and limitations.

Loss of Consortium

Serious harm to a spouse can rupture family relationships, triggering this type of damages. We prove impacts on dynamics, affection, and home life duties to fully remedy these losses.

Wrongful Death

In cases where a patient dies as a result of medical malpractice, a judge may award punitive damages as a form of compensation and a deterrent to similar behavior.

Punitive Damages

For especially egregious misconduct, these extra damages punish and deter bad behavior. If facts allow, we request the maximum available under the law.

Your medical malpractice attorney in Eutaw will work from every angle possible to pursue all categories of damages to provide a full remedy under the law.
