Definition of Medical Malpractice Medical malpractice occurs when doctors or hospitals cause injury to a trusting patient by failing to provide acceptable care. Our lawyers know how to tell if your doctor or hospital has not provided acceptable care. Tell us what happened. We can explain the medical process and help you feel at ease. We believe that legitimate medical malpractice claims help maintain the high quality of medical care that a patient expects.
People tend to be more careful when they are held accountable for their actions.
Doctors, hospitals and pharmacists are not different. Just the threat of someone calling attention to their work makes them more likely to treat their patients competently. The law firm of Terry Bryant hopes to maintain our health care standards by getting victims the compensation they deserve. An expert witness in a medical malpractice case is a doctor who specializes in the same area of medicine as the person accused of medical malpractice. This witness may be called upon to testify in court about mistakes that were made in your treatment which caused you to be injured.
