How do I know if I have a Claim?
A: Unlike other situations where a person's negligence is easy to spot, such as when a motorist runs a red light, in most instances spotting when a medical mistake has been made is much more complicated. That is because it often takes medical training to even know that a mistake has been committed.
All medical procedures carry with them what is usually a fairly well known probability of success or failure. Your doctor should and most often will discuss those probabilities with your before any procedure. Nonetheless, people often equate a poor outcome from medical treatment with medical error. In fact it might or might not be. The doctor might have done everything superbly but the outcome was still poor.
So, often to even determine if you have a claim it is necessary to have a qualified medical expert review the care and the outcome to determine if the poor outcome was simply a known risk associated with this kind of medical procedure or whether a mistake was in fact made.
