Medical Malpractice FAQ
Answers to common questions about medical negligence in Florida.
Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider fails to meet the accepted "standard of care," resulting in injury or death to the patient.
The standard of care is the level of care and skill that a reasonably competent healthcare professional in the same field would have provided under similar circumstances.
In Florida, the statute of limitations for medical malpractice is generally 2 years from when you knew or should have known about the injury, but no more than 4 years from the incident (statute of repose).
Yes, you can sue a hospital for the negligence of its employees (like nurses). However, many doctors are independent contractors, which complicates things. We can help determine liability.
Damages often include medical expenses, lost wages, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering. Florida has complex laws regarding caps on non-economic damages that have changed over time.
No. Medicine is not an exact science. A bad result does not automatically mean negligence occurred. We must prove the provider deviated from the standard of care.
Doctors must explain the risks and benefits of a procedure. If they fail to do so, and you are injured by a risk you weren't warned about, you may have a claim.
Yes. Florida law almost always requires a medical expert in the same field to review your case and sign an affidavit stating there are reasonable grounds for a claim before filing.
Yes, if the misdiagnosis led to a delay in treatment that caused harm or a worse prognosis than if diagnosed correctly.
Emergency Room cases are harder to prove because the standard of proof is essentially "reckless disregard" rather than simple negligence in some emergency situations. You need a skilled lawyer.
