Medical, Dental, & Hospital Negligence

Doctors, dentists and other healthcare providers must follow certain standards established by the medical community when caring for patients. A mistake resulting in death or injury caused by the provider's failure to meet the required standard of care is negligence.

It may include injuring a patient in surgery, failing to diagnose or misdiagnosing an illness, and prescribing improper medications. Negligence may also be the result of improper care by a hospital, including problems with medications, sanitation or nursing care. A healthcare provider may also be legally liable if a patient does not give "informed consent" to a medical procedure that results in harm to the patient, even if the procedure is performed properly.

The deviation from the standard of care must usually be proved through expert medical testimony. This is where the Abel Law Firm can really help you!

The firm aggressively investigates and pursues claims for catastrophic injuries and death as a result of a medical provider's negligence. The firm's lawyers are experienced in determining whether or not malpractice has occurred. We have nurses and doctors review the medical records to determine if negligence has occurred.

Since such malpractice cases are very expensive to prosecute and very difficult to win, only the most meritorious cases should be pursued.
