WHAT CONSTITUTES MALPRACTICE?

| Category: Personal Injury | November 3, 2017

Negligence is when you have a duty that you have to exercise towards somebody, and then you fail to use reasonable care to meet that duty and that causes injury. That would be negligence. In the field of medical malpractice, they have to perform at a reasonable medical standard, and when they fail to do so, and their failure, their negligence causes injury to a patient, then that’s an ideal situation for a medical malpractice claim.

You have to have the medical negligence coming together with the injury and the causation, the medical negligence has to cause the injury to have a successful medical malpractice claim.
