Common Types of Medical Malpractice Cases

Medical malpractice occurs when a person who is responsible for your medical care is negligent. Whether they fail to follow board regulations or they are negligent in the duty of care they owed to you, they may be responsible for medical malpractice. Medical malpractice might include:

Unfortunately, when someone is negligent with your medical care, you may be left with significant injuries or disabilities. Medical malpractice can lead to:

An experienced medical malpractice lawyer can help you explore your options following a medical mistake.

How Can Lawlor, White & Murphey Help With Your Medical Malpractice Case?
