The cornerstone of any medical malpractice case is the standard of care. Our team is adept at determining whether the healthcare provider's actions fell below this standard by comparing them to what is generally accepted in the medical community.

Causation

Proving that the breach of care caused harm is crucial. We analyze how the provider's failure led to the patient's injury and assess the extent of the damages, including the impact on the patient’s health and quality of life.

Documentation and Evidence

Thorough documentation is key to establishing a case of medical and nursing malpractice. We assist in gathering and reviewing relevant records, ensuring that all evidence is accurately represented and pertinent to the case.
