Malpractice Litigation
Malpractice litigation can be a long complex process. It requires the patient or a legally appointed representative, to show that the doctor had a duty to care, that the doctor violated the duty and the injury resulted.
A variety of ideas have been proposed to change legal rules governing Richmond malpractice lawsuit claims and replace the jury and trial system by a different system that will lower costs, speed settlements, reduce excessively generous juries, and eliminate frivolous medical claims.
Undiagnosed
Medical malpractice is usually caused by mistakes in diagnosis. It occurs countless times every year, and can have devastating results, including unnecessary surgical procedures, prolonged hospitalizations, or invasive treatment. In some cases the wrong diagnosis can result in death.
To prove that there was a malpractice the evidence must show that the doctor was bound by a duty to the patient and breached that duty by failing to diagnose the condition or injury correctly. In most instances, proving that the doctor's failure to live up to the standards of care requires an expert opinion, such as that of an expert in medical practice with extensive knowledge about the type of illness at play in the case. The expert must also prove that the doctor did not add the disease to their differential diagnosis list by asking more questions, making more observations, or ordering further tests in the diagnosis process.
A plaintiff must also demonstrate that the injuries caused by the incorrect diagnosis were a direct result of the breach of duty. This usually involves establishing damages that are actual, such as past and future medical expenses and lost income, as well as suffering and pain, shortened life expectancy and other damages. Finally, the victim must bring the lawsuit within the time limit of the statute of limitations which is typically two or three years after when the damage occurred.
