Medical malpractice takes place when a negligent action or non-action by a doctor results in harmful damage to a patient. Negligence could include a mis-diagnosis, an error in treatment, or faulty illness management. If such negligence results in serious injury, a case arises against the doctor if the actions or in-action deviate from generally accepted standards of medical practice.

Another type of Medical Malpractice case can be brought against a hospital for improper care, such as problems with medications, sanitation or nursing care; or against local, state or federal agencies that operate hospital facilities. The Medical Malpractice laws are formed to protect patients' rights to pursue compensation if they are injured as the result of such negligence. However, these malpractice suits are often complex and it takes a team of highly trained and experienced attorneys to win. At Katz Leidman we have that team in place and ready to fight for you or your loved one's rights.
