Understanding Medical Malpractice.

Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare professional, such as a doctor, nurse, surgeon, or hospital staff member, fails to provide the standard of care expected in their field, resulting in injury or harm to a patient. These cases are often legally and medically complex, requiring a deep understanding of both fields.

Our Richmond Hill medical malpractice attorneys have experience handling a wide range of negligence claims, including:

• Birth Injuries: Including cerebral palsy, Erb’s palsy, and other trauma sustained during labour and delivery. 
• Surgical Errors: Mistakes made during surgery, such as operating on the wrong site, leaving instruments behind, or damaging internal organs.
• Misdiagnosis or Delayed Diagnosis: Failure to identify serious conditions like cancer, heart attacks, or strokes in a timely manner, leading to worsened outcomes.
• Medication Errors: Prescribing the wrong medication, incorrect dosages, or failing to account for drug interactions.

The Legal Process for Medical Negligence Claims in Richmond Hill.

Pursuing a medical malpractice lawsuit in Ontario is a rigorous process. It is not enough to prove that an injury occurred; you must prove that the injury was directly caused by a healthcare provider's negligence.
