Medical Malpractice

When the medical professional fails to provide treatment within that standard of care they have committed medical malpractice.

If the patient is harmed as a result of professional negligence, the victim may be able to recover damages through a medical malpractice lawsuit. Injuries may be the result of the healthcare professional failing to diagnose or the misdiagnosis of a condition, failing to use sufficient care when treating the patient, surgical malpractice, dental malpractice, and medication errors just to name a few.

The law requires the owner of an animal to maintain control. Even when a dog accidentally gets loose and subsequently bites a human, the fault lies not with the animal, but with the animal’s owner. A victim may recover monetary damages for medical cost, pain and suffering, as well as other costs for any bites or attack damages that happen due to the pet owner’s lack of control.
