MEDICAL MALPRACTICE CLAIMS

Medical malpractice is negligence on the part of a doctor or other health care provider. When a doctor (or other health care provider) departs from accepted medical practice, and injury or death of a patient occurs as a result of that deviation from the standard of care, the doctor (or other health care provider) can be liable for their actions. Under such circumstances, the patient is entitled to recover for past and future: pain and suffering, medical expenses, and loss of earnings. A spouse (or if a minor is injured the parents) can recover for loss of services.
Over the past five years, the number of medical malpractice cases in New York state has risen dramatically. In order to make a case for medical malpractice, the healthcare provider must have committed an act that no other reasonable, prudent oral healthcare provider would have performed, resulting in serious injury. Doctors must also obtain informed consent before administering any treatment.

BELDOCK & SAUNDERS HOLDS DOCTORS ACCOUNTABLE FOR MEDICAL MALPRACTICE IN NEW YORK

Medical malpractice is a scary matter. Medical mistakes happen all the time and many of them can have devastating consequences. If you have been the victim of medical malpractice, it is essential to seek quality legal representation immediately. Those who have suffered the results of negligence on the part of a doctor, dentist, or hospital will find that it is absolutely necessary to seek monetary compensation for pain and suffering as well as medical expenses stemming from any mistakes made by a medical professional.

When searching for the best medical malpractice lawyers near you in New York, it is very important to pick a team of attorneys who have vast experience in preparing and trying those types of cases. Many lawyers hold themselves out as “trial attorneys” but never actually tried a case and are more interested in settling. The details of every medical malpractice case are different, and while we do settle some medical malpractice cases at Beldock and Saunders, we are not afraid of going to trial if that means getting a better outcome for our clients. At Beldock and Saunders Injury Attorneys we take medical malpractice and dental negligence cases very seriously and do everything in our power to get the people who need our help exactly what they deserve.

HOW MUCH IS MY MRDICAL MALPRACTICE CASE WORTH?

We can’t begin to calculate your case value without reviewing all the facts. Every claim is different, and there are many factors that determine what constitutes full and fair compensation.

That said, over the past 20 years, Beldock & Saunders, P.C has recovered more than $29 million for over 4000 clients throughout New York. Our extensive track record of success shows that we have what it takes to secure favorable settlements, or — when the need arises — go to court and win at trial.

Medical malpractice cases are complex, and for that reason, settlements and trials can take months, or even years, to resolve. Often an insurance company will try to stall the lawsuit in the hope that the injured party will get impatient. While it may be tempting to conclude the case ASAP, it’s important that you never accept less than what your claim is worth. By settling right away, a malpractice victim could lose out on thousands or even millions of dollars.
