Medical Malpractice Lawyer: What do medical malpractice lawyers do?
Atlanta Medical Malpractice Lawyer, Moses Kim from The Moses Firm
Many clients want to know: “what do medical malpractice lawyers do?”
Medical malpractice lawyers help patients and families:
- discover what happened;
- find out whether the injury or death constitutes negligence;
- determine whether the injury or death could have, and should have, been prevented;
- force the negligent hospitals and doctors to take accountability and responsibility for their negligence; and
- get closure for the horrific and tragic outcome.
Why do victims of medical malpractice need help from medical malpractice lawyers?
Major healthcare organizations like the American Medical Association (AMA), the Joint Commission, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), and peer-reviewed journals have identified preventable medical errors as a top cause of deaths and other serious injuries in the United States. Preventable medical errors can be so serious that they cause paralysis, brain damage, and amputations. When these serious medical errors happen, doctors and hospitals have an ethical and professional responsibility to truthfully and promptly disclose these medical errors and adverse events to patients and/or their families. But they do not. It almost never happens. Why? Because they do not want to accept the financial consequences of their negligence. And that is wrong.
How do medical malpractice lawyers do their job?
Medical malpractice attorneys like the experienced and proven attorneys at The Moses Firm know how to find the truth. By collecting medical records, evaluating the medical records, hiring honest and brave doctors and nurses as expert witnesses, and forcing hospital and doctors to produce documents and information they have withheld, medical malpractice lawyers can help patients and families find important information to prove their case. They help families find out what happened, how the injury occurred, and whether it was preventable. When they do this and can prove this in court, they help families get justice and accountable by
