When the unthinkable has happened, you need a team of experienced and passionate advocates.
Determining Whether You Have a Case
It can be difficult to tell whether you have a valid medical malpractice, birth injury, or nursing home abuse case. In fact, these situations are rarely clear-cut, but an experienced attorney from our firm can review the facts and determine whether you have grounds for legal action.
You likely have a case if you can prove each of the following elements:
- Injury: To have a case, you must prove that you were injured. An “injury” includes any physical injury, illness, or medical condition that leads to measurable damages or financial losses, such as medical bills, lost wages, loss of earning ability, and pain and suffering.
- Duty of Care: You must prove that the defendant had a legal responsibility to take certain actions and/or avoid certain actions to prevent foreseeable injury. In most medical malpractice and nursing home cases, this includes upholding the standard of reasonable care.
- Breach: Additionally, you must prove that the defendant breached, or failed to uphold, the duty of care. Most often, this involves negligent or wrongful conduct, such as failing to provide patients or residents with the acceptable standard of care.
- Causation: Lastly, you must establish the defendant’s breach of the duty of care as the cause of your injury and resulting damages. In other words, you must demonstrate the link between the defendant’s negligent or wrongful conduct and the incident that caused your injury.
The team at Brown & Barron works with influential healthcare experts and other specialists who serve as authorities on complex regulations and established standards of care. We utilize our robust resources to effectively prove the various elements of our clients’ cases, allowing them to pursue maximum compensation for their various economic and non-economic losses.
