Malpractice Litigation
Malpractice litigation is often a long and complicated process. It requires the patient or a legally appointed representative, to show that the doctor had a duty to care, that the doctor violated the duty and injuries resulted.
There were a variety of proposals made to alter the legal rules governing medical malpractice claims. The trial and jury system was replaced by an alternative that would cut costs and speed up settlements, eliminate juries that were too generous and weed out frivolous claims.
Misdiagnosis
Medical malpractice is usually caused by mistaken diagnosis. It happens thousands of times every year and can result in devastating effects, including the need for unneeded surgery or long hospital stays and unnecessarily aggressive treatment. In some instances a mistake in diagnosis can cause death.
To prove malpractice attorneys it must be proven that the doctor was bound by the patient a duty and breached this obligation by failing to identify the illness or injury properly. In most cases, the inability of a doctor to provide the required medical care is established through an expert opinion. This can be an expert in medicine who has vast knowledge of the kind of disease in question. The expert has to prove that the doctor did not add the condition to their list of differential diagnoses by asking additional questions, making more observations or requesting further tests as part of the diagnosing procedure.
A plaintiff must also demonstrate that the injuries resulting from an error in diagnosis are a direct result from the breach of duty. This usually involves establishing actual damages, including future and past medical expenses loss of income, suffering and pain, shortened life expectancy, and other damages. The victim must also file the lawsuit within the time limit of the statute of limitations that are typically two or three years after the damage occurred.

This pressure can lead to mistakes with catastrophic consequences.
