Medical Malpractice Legal Services

Rebuilding Your Life After Medical Malpractice

You trust your doctor to take care of you. In fact, you're trusting medical professionals with your life. Most doctors do an admirable job, but when they fail to do their job, disaster can result. If you have received unreliable medical care that negatively impacted your health, it's called medical malpractice.

Medical malpractice can apply to doctors, nurses, surgeons, and more. Obviously, these people are all humans and bad things can happen. However, when the medical provider does not provide adequate care and work with the attention to detail of their training, you can be entitled to compensation for your injuries.

Types of Medical Malpractice

Any time a medical provider hurts you, it could be a case of medical malpractice. At Murray & Murray LLC, we look at the full circumstances surrounding the case to see if the damages are directly related to the actions of the healthcare provider. The injury doesn't have to be intentional. Sometimes, the failure to do their job can be the cause of the injury.

Please note that not every bad outcome is medical malpractice. There has to be negligence involved. This means the doctor was reckless or careless in some fashion. We will make sure the doctor followed the standard of care to show that your case meets all requirements for medical malpractice.

First, we will determine the duty of care to show that the doctor had a responsibility to care for you. Then, we will establish the breach of that duty. This can be an error or a failure to uphold medical standards. Finally, we will prove causation. We will show that the doctor directly caused your condition.

The case must also show that you endured losses. This can be additional medical expenses. It can also be emotional anguish or other non-economic losses. We work with the following cases:

These cases can also involve dentists and pharmacists. In general, medical malpractice claims are different from other personal injury claims. The maximum compensation in Louisiana is $500,000. When you work with Murray & Murray LLC, we make sure that all the damages you've incurred are taken into consideration. Your future expenses are not equally limited.

These cases are complicated and difficult to prove. We'll work hard to obtain witness testimony to back up your claims of negligence and get your settlement done.
