Do personal injury lawyers deal with medical malpractice claims?
Medical malpractice is considered a subset of personal injury related law, however, proving a medical malpractice claim can be very complicated. It is a good idea to use a personal injury lawyer who has specific experience with medical malpractice claims. Building a medical malpractice case may require extensive knowledge of medical procedures and medical practice. A medical malpractice attorney may also need to call on the testimony of doctors who can testify to standard procedure and show that what happened in the case was a deviation from that standard of care.
