When there is an error due to a doctor or hospital, the results can be devastating to the victim. Many people hold doctors to a very high level and often dont think they make mistakes. This is obviously not the case as doctors are people and we all make mistakes from time to time. Having a skilled and experienced attorney review your case is the first step in determining whether or not you have a case. Many times people may not realize they have a good case because they have not had their case reviewed by an experienced attorney. Likewise, many people think they have a good solid case when there may be some very serious problems with bringing the case to court.
At the Law offices of Todd A. Mandel P.C. we have the experience to investigate your case and determine if there is any negligence on the part of the doctor or hospital. We are experienced in finding experts who will review your case and see whether the doctor and or hospital did everything that is customary for medical providers. Sometimes reviewing the medical records can take a long time but it is important to thoroughly understand each and every aspect of your case. Medical malpractice cases are some of the most difficult to be successful on because no doctor wants a malpractice case on their record. If a doctor has just one malpractice case against them their malpractice insurance rates will go up drastically. For this reason doctors fight aggressively to win their case and as such it is important for the lawyer you choose to fight even more aggressively on your behalf.
Many times people are understandably interested in how much their case is worth. This can be a difficult question to answer especially if the case goes to trial. The reason is that if there is a jury trial it is almost impossible to know what 12 jurors will do on a particular day. For this reason many people find that settling their case is better than risking their case in front of a jury where they may lose their case. Sometimes the use of mediation is helpful in getting a case resolved. This is usually done by have a retired judge mediate or help settle a case. There is usually a great deal of negotiations that occur before a settlement occurs. Usually an attorney will not agree to take a case unless there is a great likelihood of winning the case. This is because in a medical malpractice case the attorney usually has to invest a lot of time and money and they want to make sure they will be able to collect their costs back and get paid for the time they spend on a case.
