Proving Fault In Your Medical Malpractice Case

The first thing that your Los Angeles medical malpractice attorney is going to suggest you do is prove that there was actually fault on the part of the physician or doctor who was supposed to deliver medical care to you. For this you will have to be very careful and persistent.


The Importance Of A Doctor Patient Relationship

It is very important that you with the help of your Los Angeles medical malpractice lawyers are able to prove that there was in fact a doctor patient relationship which in the eyes of the law states that the doctor in fact had a duty towards you that entailed providing you with competent medical care under any circumstances. In general practice this should not be a very difficult element to prove because if the doctor had agreed to provide any kind of diagnosis or treatment to you or if you are able to prove that the care was actually provided despite the absence of any specific agreement between you two, then the doctor patient relationship actually existed. Your Los Angeles medical malpractice attorney with tell you that this element of your case will usually go unchallenged.


What Is The Link Between Doctor's Negligence And Patients Injury?

It is very important that you are able to prove that your doctor did commit mistakes and errors that led to a medical injury. However this single aspect is not going to be enough because you will also have to make it clear that your resultant injuries are not due to any underlying medical condition or some other cause that you may have failed to disclose to the jury or judge. You should be able to prove that the injuries suffered by you were actually a result of the sub standard medical care that you received from your doctor. In this an expert testimony might be able to establish your claim better. You may seek the assistance and expert opinions of unbiased professionals who may be appointed by the judge. This should be able to help you prove the doctor’s fault.
