If A Medical Mistake Caused You Harm, What Party Is To Blame?

Medical problems can be frustrating for you and your Connecticut family. The costs are high, and it could lead to various complications that carry over into multiple areas of your life. These problems can be compounded when medical mistakes cause additional physical harm. People who are victims of medical errors have certain rights.

If you believe you are the victim of a medical mistake, it is much more than an inconvenience. It can cost you in many ways, yet it is possible to hold liable parties accountable if you suffered harm due to the negligent care of a medical professional. It may seem like a daunting prospect to seek compensation through a medical malpractice claim, but you do not have to walk through it alone.

 

The foundation for a strong claim

Suffering further harm while in a hospital or under the care of a doctor does not necessarily mean you have grounds to move forward with a claim. There must be proof that your suffering was the result of a medical mistake, such as misdiagnosis, negligence, improper medication dosage or other error. When preparing your claim, you must be able to prove the following:

  • There was an expected duty of care owed to you by the doctor, facility, nurse or another party
  • There was a deviation from the acceptable standard of care, which resulted in your physical harm.
  • Your additional suffering led to financial loss and hardship

You must present evidence of a connection between your injury and the actions of the person who caused you harm. Additionally, you must be able to prove a clear relationship between you and the doctor or another party.

Seeking compensation through a civil claim is not an easy process. It can be challenging to build a claim that clearly proves liability. As a medical malpractice victim, it can be smart for you to seek guidance to clearly understand your legal options.

 

Recompense for your suffering

The suffering you experienced from a medical error or malpractice can be significant. It can be a hardship for you and your family, but there are legal options available to you. It is beneficial to take quick action to learn more about your rights and legal options as soon as possible after you discovered there was a problem.

With guidance, it is possible to hold the right parties accountable for what you experienced due to medical malpractice. You have no time to lose in taking action to protect your financial interests and your right to recovery.
