Medical Negligence

Medical negligence, also known as medical malpractice, refers to a situation where a healthcare provider deviates from the accepted standards of medical care and, as a result, causes harm or injury to a patient. This can include mistakes made during diagnosis, treatment, aftercare, or any other aspect of medical treatment. If a patient can prove that their injury was caused by the negligence of a medical professional, they may be entitled to compensation through a personal injury claim. The compensation can cover medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and other damages incurred as a result of the injury.
