Types of Medical Malpractice

Any time you seek medical care, your doctor or surgeon has certain professional responsibilities that constitute a certain standard of care. Negligence is the legal term that refers to your physician’s failure to follow that standard of care, which can provide grounds for a medical malpractice lawsuit in Indiana. If you have been injured by the negligence of a physician, medical malpractice attorney Richard
Truitt
of Truitt Law Offices in Fort Wayne has over 30 years of experience in Indiana personal injury law and is fully qualified to help you file your medical malpractice claim.

Medical negligence only qualifies as medical malpractice when a physician causes injury by failing to uphold the established standard of care. This can happen in a wide variety of ways, but may be difficult to prove. Truitt Law Offices has the legal experience and the knowledge of medical issues to guide you through the legal process and establish proof for your medical malpractice claim.

Examples of medical malpractice might include:
Emergency room errors or delay of care that results in injury
Surgical errors
Missed or incorrect diagnoses
Birth injuries

If you or a loved one was injured as a result of a surgical error or another type of medical malpractice, please contact your trusted Fort Wayne medical malpractice attorney Richard Truitt for a free initial interview to discuss your legal options.
