What Are The Requirements to File a Medical Malpractice Lawsuit in South Florida? Advocates USA 1-800-872-4878

Some stipulations will need to be proven to file a malpractice lawsuit. If you or a loved one was injured or death occurred, the medical professional must have acted with negligence. Our medical malpractice attorneys must prove the following:

A patient/doctor relationship existed: This means you hired a doctor, and the doctor agreed to be hired. You can’t sue a physician that you overheard giving advice. You must show that you had a patient/physician relationship and that he/she personally treated you.

The doctor practiced negligent behavior: Not liking the treatment or results that were provided does not mean the doctor acted with negligent conduct and, therefore, liable for medical malpractice. You need to show that the medical professional caused harm, that a usual competent doctor, under the same circumstances, would not have. In most medical malpractice lawsuits, a medical expert is required to examine the case and determine how the doctor deviated from the medical standard of care.

The doctor’s negligence directly caused the patient’s injuries: This can be hard to prove, especially if the patient entered the doctor’s care with a preexisting condition. You need to show that your injuries are directly linked to the doctor’s incompetence, and a medical expert will typically need to testify to prove negligence.

Injuries caused specific damages: You can’t sue a doctor for medical malpractice if you didn’t experience any harm regardless of the doctor performing under the expected standard. If the patient was injured in any way, they could sue for:

•  Lost work and lost earning capacity
•  Physical pain
•  Mental anguish
•  More than average medical bills
