Chicago Malpractice Defense Attorney

Malpractice is, in simple terms, professional negligence. Medical malpractice is when a medical professional’s conduct failed to meet the generally accepted standard of medical care and because of this failure, injuries resulted.

According to a 2016 study by Johns Hopkins Medicine, medical errors—which included diagnostic errors, medical mistakes, the absence of safety nets, etc.— ranked as the third leading cause of death in the United States. Medical malpractice, is a serious issue affecting the lives and rights of thousands of patients, as well as the lives and careers of thousands of healthcare practitioners.

Here in the District of Columbia, out of the six trial medical malpractice trial verdicts in 2018, two were for plaintiff and each had a verdict amount of more than 1.2 million dollars. Contentious, complex, and surrounded by controversy, a medical malpractice case is something no healthcare practitioner in Chicago would ever want to deal with.

In criminal cases, defendants need to be proven guilty of a crime “beyond reasonable doubt.” In medical malpractice cases, though, only need a “preponderance of the evidence.” This means that if there is more than a 50% chance that the plaintiff’s claims are true (based on the evidence presented), then the defendant can be found guilty.
