Physician and Hospital Claims

Typical medical malpractice claims may include:

• Failure to obtain an “informed consent” from the patient prior to treatment

Damages that may be recovered from a medical malpractice suit are:

• Medical expenses for injuries
• Damages for pain and suffering

Medical malpractice claims require evaluations by both an attorney and a physician.
