Charleston Medical Malpractice Attorney
We give a lot of trust to our medical providers and when they break or breach that trust and injury us, there are lasting effects.
If a doctor, physcian, nurse, or any medical treatment provider breaches the appropriate standard of care, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries.
Sometimes these cases are clear and obvious – for example, if a doctor left a medical device inside of you while undergoing surgery or perhaps they operated on the wrong body part. Here, liability is more clear. Other times liability may be more difficult to determine. This is where an experienced Charleston MedMal attorney can help.
Medical malpractice is one of the leading causes of death in the United States. Some studies show medical error (malpractice) is the leading cause of accident death in the United States.
