Malpractice Litigation
Malpractice litigation is often a long and complicated process. It is essential for the patient or legally appointed representative to show that the doctor violated the duty of care owed them and that a repercussion resulted.
Many proposals have been put forward to change legal rules governing malpractice claims and replace the jury system and trial with an alternative that would reduce costs, speed settlements, eliminate excessively large juries and screen out unnecessary medical claims.
Incorrect diagnosis
Medical malpractice is usually caused by misdiagnosis. It occurs millions of times every year, and can result in devastating results, such as the need for surgery that is not needed and long hospital stays and unnecessarily aggressive treatment. A misdiagnosis can even result in death in some cases that involve serious injuries or illness.

The expert should also demonstrate that the doctor did not sufficiently add the illness to the list of differential diagnosis using methods such as asking additional questions, observing further or ordering additional tests in the diagnostic procedure.
A plaintiff must also show that the injuries caused by a misdiagnosis are a direct result of the breach of duty. This usually involves establishing actual damages, such as future and past medical expenses as well as lost income, suffering and suffering, a shorter life expectancy and other losses.
