Medical malpractice occurs when the action or inaction of a medical team (including a hospital, doctor, nurse, or other health care professionals) ultimately leads to patient harm. Medical professionals owe their patients the highest duty of care, so must always exercise skill and diligence to ensure that their patients are not harmed.
For there to be medical malpractice, there must have been a failure to provide a proper standard of care, an injury directly resulting from the medical team’s negligence, and damage associated with the injury.
Some examples of medical malpractice could include the following:
- Misdiagnosis
- Failure to diagnose
- Failure to run the necessary tests
- Failure to take action after receiving tests
- Unnecessary surgeries
- Administering the wrong dosage of anesthesia or the wrong type of anesthesia
- Leaving medical equipment or other objects inside the victim’s body
- Performing surgery on the wrong part of the body
- Nerve damage during the surgery, resulting in chronic pain
- Errors during the surgery, resulting in long-term harm
- Infections due to poor practices (not cleaning utensils properly, not washing hands, etc.)
- Discharging the patient too early
- Not providing the necessary follow up care
- Ignoring patient complaints of pain at the surgery site or other symptoms
Yes, you could have the right to file a lawsuit for medical malpractice. To be able to pursue a medical malpractice claim, there must be a patient-doctor relationship and the actions (or inaction) of the medical team must have resulted in injury and in harm. If you are unsure of your right to file a medical malpractice lawsuit, do not hesitate to reach out to the experts here at our law firm as soon as possible.
Can I Recover Compensation?Yes, you could be entitled to receive compensation. Based on the details surrounding your claim, you could be entitled to receive compensation for all medical costs, lost income, pain and suffering, punitive damages, and legal fees, for example. If the medical malpractice resulted in death, then survivors could be eligible to recover compensation for all medical costs incurred, loss of support, funeral and burial costs, loss of consortium, and more.
How much can my case be worth? The value of your claim will be based on the specific facts surrounding the claim, including the specific harm that occurred, the permanency of the damage, the mental and emotional harm caused by the harm, and more. Neurosurgery medical malpractice claims can be very high value. These claims can be worth anywhere from $150,000 to $5 million. It is important to consider that there is a $250,000 cap on non-economic damages.

- Gather all records relevant to any lost income
- Seek legal assistance as soon as possible
All claims are subject to a statute of limitations, or a deadline to sue. In California, medical malpractice claims are subject to a three-year statute of limitations, meaning that claimants will only have three years to file their claims. What if I don’t file my claim on time? If you do not file your claim on time, you could lose your right to sue entirely.
