What Is Considered Medical Malpractice in Boston?

If you’re facing the consequences of a medical error, you don’t have to go through it alone. Medical malpractice cases are complex, but with the right legal representation, you can seek justice. Our Boston Medical Malpractice Lawyer is here to help.

Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare professional fails to provide the appropriate standard of care, resulting in injury or harm to the patient. These cases can arise from various forms of negligence, including:

  • Misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose
  • Surgical errors
  • Medication mistakes
  • Birth injuries
  • Delayed treatment
  • Lack of informed consent

If you or a loved one has suffered due to a medical professional’s negligence, our attorneys are ready to fight for the compensation you deserve.

Common Types of Medical Malpractice in Boston

If you suspect medical malpractice, it’s crucial to act quickly. Speak with our Boston Medical Malpractice Lawyers to explore your legal options.

Some of the most common medical malpractice cases include:

  • Misdiagnosis: Receiving an incorrect diagnosis can lead to improper treatment and worsening health conditions.
  • Failure to Diagnose: When a doctor overlooks critical symptoms, a patient may be deprived of timely medical intervention.
  • Delayed Diagnosis: A delay in identifying a condition can result in severe complications or preventable fatalities.
  • Birth Injuries: Negligence during labor and delivery can cause lifelong harm to newborns, including cerebral palsy or hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.
  • Surgical Errors: Mistakes during surgery, such as operating on the wrong body part or leaving instruments inside a patient, can have devastating consequences.
  • Medication Errors: Incorrect prescriptions, dosages, or dangerous drug interactions can lead to serious health complications.
  • Anesthesia Mistakes: Errors in administering anesthesia can result in severe injuries, including brain damage or death.
  • Improper Treatment: When a doctor provides the wrong treatment for a condition, it can exacerbate the issue instead of resolving it.

A skilled Boston Medical Malpractice Lawyer will analyze your case, determine liability, and help you pursue the compensation you deserve.

James was searching for equipment for painting at Home Depot. In the aisle next to him, there was a worker on a lift stocking the highest shelf. The worker pushed boxes so far across the shelf that they fell off the other edge and hit James in the head. The force almost knocked James unconscious. He sat down and the loud bang got the worker off the ladder to see what fell. When they saw James they offered him a bucket and made a report. James did not recall leaving the store or how he got home. He did not recall much except being at home depot and getting hit in the head. Home Depot told him that it was a small box of dust masks that hurt him. We discovered it was actually a large box of emergency kits that fell off the shelf.
