Medical malpractice refers to a medical professional’s failure to use the level of education, knowledge, and skill that’s expected of them, which, in turn, causes a patient’s injury or death.
In other words, medical malpractice refers to a doctor’s negligence.
Many things can contribute to medical malpractice, including:
When a healthcare provider makes a mistake, they can be held legally and financially responsible for the resulting harm through a medical malpractice lawsuit.
Medical malpractice is a type of negligence. So, to win a medical malpractice lawsuit, you will have the burden of proving that your healthcare provider (or another liable party) was negligent.
Specifically, you must establish the following elements:
What’s the standard of care expected of physicians in the State of Texas? There’s no set definition. However, when evaluating a situation for malpractice, we’ll consider what a reasonable and prudent medical professional of the same specialty would have done under the circumstances. Did your doctor’s conduct fall short? If so, they likely failed to meet the standard of care expected and breached the duty of care to you.
At the Jay Murray Personal Injury Lawyers, we have decades of experience building successful medical negligence claims against powerful hospitals and reckless medical caretakers. Let us help you fight to win your medical malpractice claim, too.
Medical malpractice can take many different forms, including:
You can benefit from Jay Murray’s considerable experience and in-depth knowledge of Texas medical malpractice law by calling his law office in Dallas today.
When you file a medical malpractice claim, you’re generally permitted to request damages for your financial losses and related pain and suffering.
Under Texas law, these are known as compensatory damages and can include money for:
Texas does limit how much compensation can be awarded in medical malpractice cases. There’s no cap on economic damages, but non-economic damages are limited to $250,000 in situations involving individual provider negligence. If multiple defendants are involved, the cap on non-economic awards is $500,000.
If there’s evidence that a provider acted with malice or gross negligence, a Dallas jury might also decide that punitive damages are appropriate.
The hospital and its insurance company will work hard to downplay your injuries and limit your financial recovery. When you choose the Jay Murray Personal Injury Lawyers, you’ll protect yourself from these underhanded and often manipulative tactics. Our medical malpractice attorney in Dallas will fight to secure a result that accurately represents what your case is worth and provides financial stability for life.
Liability isn’t limited to one careless doctor. Ultimately, anyone involved in your medical treatment can potentially be on the hook for your resulting injuries and trauma. Under state law, liability is directly proportionate to fault.
Depending on the specific details of your case, liability might extend to one or more of the following parties:
Dallas medical negligence attorney Jay Murray will carefully consider the facts of your case, determine who contributed to your injury, and work hard to hold each and every liable party accountable.
Under Texas law, the statute of limitations for medical malpractice lawsuits is two years.
Thanks to the state’s discovery rule, the statute of limitations doesn’t begin to run until your injury or illness is discovered. So, if there’s some time between an act of negligence and the discovery of a related injury, the statute of limitations is tolled until then.
However, there is a 10-year statute of repose that applies to medical malpractice cases. With very limited exceptions, all claims for medical negligence must be brought within 10 years of the date of the negligence.
Once the deadline passes, you will lose the opportunity to pursue compensation from a negligent medical professional. Don’t let that happen. Call the Jay Murray Personal Injury Lawyers for help as soon as you can after you’ve discovered that your doctor has made a mistake.
Did you recently suffer injuries or experience the wrongful death of a family member because of a medical provider’s negligence? If so, you may have the right to file a lawsuit and hold them legally responsible for your resulting costs and suffering.
