A thorough determination of facts is necessary to successfully prove nursing malpractice. Evidence like CCTV footage, patient records, and witness testimonies need to be gathered. The issue of liability is also contentious. The nurse may have been acting on the direction of a supervisor or a doctor, so determining who is liable for your injuries will require scrutiny.
The lawyers at the Porter Law Group are no strangers to medical malpractice cases. Our experienced personal injury attorneys have decades of collective experience in dealing with hospitals that provide substandard care and cause harm to patients due to negligence.
If in the course of our investigation, it is found that you were injured by a nurse who was hired despite the lack of proper qualifications, you may even have a negligent hiring and supervision case on your hands as well. This adds another layer of complexity.
Hospitals are big businesses and pay large premiums for insurance in cases of malpractice lawsuits. You will need to contend with these insurance companies if you are looking for financial compensation for injuries. Often, they will try to offer you settlements for the lowest amount possible. Do not allow yourself to be short-changed.
