Medical Malpractice Lawsuits
Attorneys have a fiduciary obligation with their clients and are expected to act with diligence, care and ability. Attorneys make mistakes, just like any other professional.
Not every mistake made by an attorney is an act of malpractice. To prove legal malpractice, an aggrieved party has to prove obligation, breach, causation and damages. Let's look at each of these elements.
Duty
Doctors and medical professionals take an oath to apply their knowledge and expertise to treat patients, and not cause additional harm. A patient's legal right to compensation for injuries sustained due to medical malpractice is based on the concept of duty of care. Your attorney can determine if your doctor's actions breached the duty of medical care and whether these violations resulted in your injury or illness.
To establish a duty of care, your lawyer has to establish that a medical professional had a legal relationship with you, in which they were bound by a fiduciary duty to act with a reasonable level of skill and care. Establishing that this relationship existed may require evidence, such as the records of your doctor and patient, eyewitness statements and expert testimony from doctors with similar qualifications, experience and education.
Your lawyer will also have to prove that the medical professional breached their duty of caring in not adhering to the accepted standards of their area of expertise. This is often called negligence. Your attorney will compare the defendant's behavior to what a reasonable person would do in the same circumstance.
Your lawyer must demonstrate that the defendant's breach of duty directly caused damage or loss to you. This is called causation. Your lawyer will make use of evidence like your medical or patient records, witness testimony, and expert testimony, to show that the defendant’s failure to meet the standard of care was the main cause of your injury or loss to you.
Breach
A doctor has a duty to patients of care that reflect the standards of medical professional practice. If a doctor fails to meet these standards and that failure results in injury, then medical malpractice and negligence could occur. Typically, expert testimony from medical professionals who have similar training, expertise and certifications will assist in determining what the minimum standard of treatment should be in a particular case. State and federal laws as well as institute policies also help determine what doctors should provide for specific kinds of patients.
To prevail in a malpractice lawsuit the evidence must prove that the doctor acted in violation of his or her duty of take care of patients and that the breach was the primary cause of an injury. In legal terms, this is referred to as the causation component and it is vital to establish. For instance in the event that a damaged arm requires an xray the doctor should properly place the arm and put it in a cast for proper healing. If the physician failed to do this and the patient was left with an irreparable loss of use of that arm, then malpractice could have occurred.
Causation
Lawyer malpractice claims are based on the evidence that the attorney committed mistakes that caused financial losses to the client. Legal malpractice claims may be brought by the person who was injured when, for instance, the lawyer does not file the lawsuit within the timeframe of the statute of limitations and results in the case being lost forever.
However, it's important to recognize that not all errors made by lawyers are a sign of malpractice. Strategies and mistakes are not usually considered to be malpractice attorneys have a lot of latitude to make decisions based on their judgments as long as they're reasonable.
Additionally, the law grants attorneys a lot of discretion to conduct a discovery process on the behalf of their clients, as long as the action was not unreasonable or negligent. Legal malpractice is committed through the failure to uncover important documents or facts, such as medical reports or witness statements. Other instances of malpractice include the failure to include certain defendants or claims, such as not noticing a survival count in the case of wrongful death or the constant failure to communicate with clients.
It is also important to note the necessity for the plaintiff to prove that, if not due to the lawyer's negligent behavior they could have won their case. In the event that it is not, the plaintiff's claim for malpractice will be rejected. This is why it's difficult to bring a legal malpractice claim. It is important to employ an experienced attorney.
Damages
A plaintiff must prove that the attorney's actions resulted in actual financial losses to win a legal malpractice suit. This has to be demonstrated in a lawsuit through evidence such as expert testimony, correspondence between client and attorney, billing records and other documentation. A plaintiff must also demonstrate that a reasonable attorney would have prevented the harm caused by the negligence of the lawyer. This is referred to as proximate cause.
It can happen in a variety of ways. Some of the most common errors include: not meeting an expiration date or statute of limitations; failing to conduct an examination of a conflict on an instance; applying the law incorrectly to a client's circumstances; and breaching a fiduciary obligation (i.e. mixing trust funds with personal attorney accounts) or a mishandling of the case, or not communicating with clients.
In most medical malpractice cases the plaintiff seeks compensation damages. These compensations compensate the victim for expenses out of pocket and losses such as medical and hospitals bills, the cost of equipment to aid in recovery, and lost wages. In addition, victims can be able to claim non-economic damages like suffering and suffering and loss of enjoyment of life, and emotional stress.
Legal malpractice cases typically include claims for compensatory and punitive damages. The first compensates the victim for the damages caused by negligence on the part of the attorney while the latter is meant to prevent future mistakes on the part of the defendant.
