If you've been injured through the carelessness, negligence or irresponsible behavior of a physician, nurse or other health care provider, you may be able to obtain compensation through a medical malpractice lawsuit. Legal action may be appropriate when substandard medical care causes you harm. Examples of such medical negligence are:

• Failure to diagnose or treat a disease or condition
• Surgical error
• Medication administration error
• Improper care in a nursing home

What happens in a medical malpractice case?

Healthcare providers found by the courts to be responsible for medical malpractice, are required to pay damages, which are generally paid by the health care provider's insurance. If your case is successful, a settlement will be determined by negotiation or the decision of a judge or jury.You may be awarded actual damages for pain and suffering, health care costs, lost income, mental stress and permanent disability, among other things.
