It can be devastating to put your trust in a medical professional only to suffer from medical malpractice or medical negligence. Every year, thousands of people are victims of surgical errors or misdiagnoses, and because most never pursue a legal claim, these individuals never receive the compensation they deserve for their injuries.

What Is Considered Medical Malpractice?
Medical malpractice occurs when a medical professional such as a doctor, surgeon, nurse, or dentist provides care that falls below the acceptable standards for their profession. Many patients mistakenly believe that if they signed a consent waiver for a particular treatment or procedure, they have forfeited their rights to make a legal claim for damages, but that simply isn’t true. At The Florida Law Group, we have an incredibly talented team of civil trial attorneys who can help you understand your legal rights.
You have an absolute right to receive the standard of care granted to all patients. Examples of medical malpractice or medical negligence include:
- Anesthesia errors
- Surgical errors
- Pharmacy errors
