Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider fails to provide the standard of care that a reasonably competent provider would have delivered under similar circumstances, resulting in harm to the patient.
To prove medical malpractice, the plaintiff must establish that the healthcare provider owed a duty of care, breached that duty, and caused harm as a result. The burden of proof rests on demonstrating that the provider’s actions deviated from accepted medical standards.
A misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis can lead to incorrect or delayed treatment, resulting in worsening conditions or additional complications.
Residential complexes with inadequate security measures, such as broken gates, non-functioning security cameras, and lack of security personnel, can lead to increased risks of crime.
Businesses such as hotels, bars, and restaurants must implement proper security measures to protect patrons. Failure to do so can result in liability for any harm caused by criminal activities on their premises.
Hospital negligence involves the failure of hospital staff to provide adequate care, leading to patient harm. This can include improper patient monitoring, inadequate staffing, or failure to follow protocols.
Informed consent requires healthcare providers to inform patients of potential risks and alternatives before undergoing treatment. Failure to do so can lead to legal liability if the patient suffers harm as a result.
