Medical Negligence
Dedicated Advocacy for Victims of Medical Negligence
Patients trust healthcare providers with their health, safety, and lives. When that trust is broken due to negligence, the consequences can be devastating physically, emotionally, and financially.
At The Med Law, we represent individuals and families harmed by medical negligence, helping them seek accountability, justice, and the resources needed to move forward.
What Is Medical Negligence?
Medical negligence occurs when a healthcare provider or facility fails to meet the standard of care, causing injury, harm, or death.
Common Medical Negligence Cases Include
Errors in Diagnosis
Failure to correctly diagnose or delays in diagnosis that prevent timely and effective treatment.
Surgical Mistakes
Wrong-site surgery, anesthesia errors, retained surgical instruments, or preventable surgical complications.
Medication Errors
Incorrect prescriptions, improper dosages, harmful drug interactions, or failure to monitor side effects.
Hospital or Nursing Negligence
Infections, poor post-operative care, inadequate staffing, or failure to respond to patient distress.
When Negligence May Be Involved
Not all medical outcomes are unavoidable. Negligence may be present when a provider fails to act with reasonable care under the circumstances.
Potential warning signs include:
Failure to follow established medical protocols
Ignoring or dismissing patient symptoms
Delayed or missed diagnosis
Medication or dosage mistakes
Lack of informed consent
