Fort Worth Personal Injury Attorney
Medical Malpractice/Negligence
If
a doctor is negligent while operating his car,
he can cause death or serious injury, just like
anybody else. If he is negligent in his care and
treatment of a patient, he can also cause death
or serious injury in a medical malpractice claim.
Doctors and hospitals (even the good ones) are
sometime negligent. If the negligence proximately
causes damages, the doctors should be held responsible
for the damages. However, our legislature and
the courts continue to make it more difficult
for citizens to hold negligent doctors responsible
for damages they have caused. Doctors have their
own special set of laws to protect them from negligence
claims and also have their own special laws restricting
the damages that a jury can award in a medical
malpractice claim.
