Determining Liability in a Nassau County Medical Malpractice Claim
There are various parties that may be held liable for the injuries you have suffered due to medical malpractice. If a medical professional’s performance falls below the accepted standards of care and results in harm to the patient, the physician, surgeon, nurse, anesthesiologist, technician, or hospital may be held liable for medical malpractice.
In order to have a successful medical malpractice claim, you must prove elements of negligence caused your medical malpractice injuries:
- Establishing a lawful duty of care: There was a patient-doctor relationship, which established a lawful duty of care.
- Violation of duty: The medical professional failed to uphold the standard of care, which resulted in a medical error or significant injury.
- Causation: The medical professional caused you direct harm by violating the standards of care.
- You incurred damages: You suffered tremendous losses, such as costly medical expenses, lost wages, disability, scarring, disfigurement, or other negligence-related losses.
At Law Office of Cohen & Jaffe, LLP we can help you prove the negligent care of your medical provider by conducting an investigation into the incident, examining evidence, and building a case based on the testimony and evidence we obtain.
