St. Louis Attorneys For Victims Of Medical Malpractice
The medical profession establishes standards that doctors must follow in order to provide effective care for patients. When through action or inaction a physician fails to meet those standards — and as a result a patient is harmed — there may be grounds for a medical malpractice claim.
Negligence or improper treatment can occur in numerous medical settings, such as a doctor’s office, hospital, clinic, nursing home, emergency room, operating room and so on. In addition, the scope of professionals subject to medical malpractice lawsuits ranges from general medical practitioners to professionals in very specialized fields, such as surgeons, chiropractors, cardiologists, anesthesiologists, dentists, optometrists, podiatrists, psychiatrists, oncologists and many more.

Put Our Years Of Experience On Your Side
Even though medical malpractice has become a widespread legal issue, these cases are often quite challenging to prove. Proving medical malpractice requires the expertise of seasoned and experienced attorneys who are capable of thorough case preparation that involves meticulous discovery. Failure to meet the standard of care must be substantiated. In presenting the case, it must be established that substandard care was the underlying cause of patient injury. You need a law firm that has access to medical professionals who are willing to testify as expert witnesses.
