Proving Negligence in a Brain Injury Claim

Proving negligence in a brain injury claim caused by medical malpractice requires a thorough and strategic approach. At Brown & Barron, LLC, our Baltimore brain injury attorneys are well-versed in handling complex medical malpractice cases and are dedicated to establishing negligence on behalf of our clients.

Key elements involved in proving negligence include:

1. Duty of Care: We begin by establishing that the medical professional or healthcare provider owed you a duty of care. This duty of care implies that they had a legal obligation to provide a certain standard of care, skill, and expertise while treating you.
2. Breach of Duty: We then demonstrate that the medical professional breached their duty of care through their actions or omissions. This requires showing that their conduct deviated from the accepted standard of care that a reasonably skilled and competent healthcare provider would have followed in similar circumstances.
3. Causation: We establish a causal connection between the medical professional's breach of duty and your brain injury. This involves demonstrating that the negligent actions directly caused or substantially contributed to your injury. We consult with medical experts who can provide opinions and testimony to strengthen this causal link.
4. Damages: We must establish the damages you have suffered as a result of the brain injury caused by medical malpractice. This includes both economic and non-economic damages such as medical expenses, ongoing treatment costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, loss of quality of life, and other relevant factors.
5. Expert Testimony: Medical malpractice cases often require expert testimony to support the claim of negligence. We work with respected medical experts who can analyze the medical records, evaluate the standard of care, and provide professional opinions on the breach of duty and the resulting brain injury.
6. Comparative Negligence: In some cases, the defense may argue that your own actions contributed to the brain injury. We will address this by demonstrating that any potential contributory negligence on your part was minimal, or that it did not directly cause or contribute significantly to the injury.
7. Documentation and Evidence: We gather all relevant medical records, diagnostic tests, treatment plans, and other evidence to build a compelling case. This documentation helps to establish the extent of the injury, the damages suffered, and the connection to the medical professional's negligence.
