Patients go to their doctors and nurses for trusted advice and treatment regarding their health. They trust that they will be treated and get better, not harmed further. Unfortunately, there are times when these trusted medical professionals can be negligent and cause patients to suffer. Patients are entitled to receive a standard of care, and when medical professionals fail to provide this standard, the result may be medical errors such as misdiagnosis or birth defects.

Medical malpractice cases are surprisingly common, ranking as the third leading cause of death in the United States. Medical professionals who choose to take shortcuts instead of following proper safety procedures should be held accountable for their negligence. The Montgomery, AL, medical malpractice lawyers at Floyd Hunter Injury Law can bring you justice for your losses.

Do You Have a Case?

If your injuries were caused by a medical professional’s carelessness, you likely have a case for a medical malpractice claim. The attorneys at Floyd Hunter Injury Law can help you pursue the maximum compensation for your injuries. Here are a few of the factors to consider when determining whether you have a case:

Common examples of medical malpractice include:

  • Hospital Negligence
  • Surgical Mistakes
  • Medication Errors
  • Incorrect Diagnoses
  • Birth Injuries and Defects

These medical errors are preventable and cause victims to endure unnecessary pain and suffering, high medical bills, and at times, even death. At Floyd Hunter Injury Law, we aren’t afraid to fight major insurance companies to make sure you and your family get the compensation you deserve in your Montgomery medical malpractice case.

To be compensated for medical malpractice in Alabama, you must provide a detailed explanation of the event that caused your injuries. There are three things that must be proven to determine the doctor or nurse’s liability.

First, the “medical standard of care,” or the level of care that a competent medical professional should have provided you, must be established. Then, you’ll describe exactly what the medical professional did or didn’t do that caused their care to fall below the standard. Finally, you’ll need to prove that your injuries were a result of the poor treatment you received.

The Thumbs Up Guys® can assist you in gathering evidence and making the strongest case for compensation.

In the state of Alabama, there is a two-year statute of limitations on most medical malpractice cases. Since this only gives you up to two years from the date of your injury to file a claim, it is important to contact an attorney as soon as possible to get started.

What Kinds of Compensation Are Available?

While the majority of your settlement will come from expenses directly related to the medical error, you may be entitled to additional compensation without realizing it. Let’s look at some of the losses we can help you recover with a medical malpractice claim:

  • Medical Bills
    These include, but are not limited to, visits to a doctor, surgical procedures, prescription medication, and therapy needed for your injuries. On top of these expenses, you may also recover future damages if you need to cover the cost of living with a temporary or permanent disability.
  • Lost Wages
    You can seek compensation for past wages lost as well as wages you may miss out on in the future due to your recovery.
  • Pain and Suffering
    These are damages you can seek to address non-financial losses, such as emotional pain, mental illness, loss of enjoyment of life, and loss of companionship.

Because every medical malpractice case is unique, it’s important to have one of our skilled attorneys review your case to determine every last dollar you are due.

Medical Malpractice FAQs

No. Unlike many other states, Alabama has no caps on medical malpractice damages. This means that injured individuals have the opportunity to be compensated for every bit of the losses they’ve suffered from the medical error, without limit.

While many medical malpractice cases involve a doctor, there are other medical professionals and entities that can be held responsible. Nurses, anesthesiologists, hospital staff, and even the hospital itself can all be held liable, along with any others that were responsible for the medical error.

The standard of care is the quality of care you expect to receive from a skilled medical professional. In a medical malpractice case, the medical professionals failed to meet that standard. In order to demonstrate what the standard of care would be in any given situation, an expert witness is called to explain how the medical professional should have reasonably behaved.

Although anyone is able to represent themselves, having a skilled and knowledgeable attorney on your side makes it much more likely that you’ll be compensated. A lawyer can make sure every piece of evidence is accounted for and all damages are paid.

Every case is different, and medical malpractice cases can often take months or even years to resolve. If you’ve been injured due to a medical error, it’s in your best interest to contact the Thumbs Up Guys® immediately and get started.
