Doctors and other healthcare providers must adhere to certain standards of care. The standard of care refers to the knowledge, skills, and care exercised by other professionals or specialists in a given field. When medical professionals don’t meet this standard of care, or are negligent in providing medical treatment, you may have a medical malpractice case. To successfully win a medical malpractice lawsuit, an attorney must prove a healthcare provider was not only negligent, but that the negligence caused harm to the patient.
