Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider deviates from accepted standards of care, resulting in harm to the patient. In Missouri, proving malpractice involves demonstrating that the provider’s actions were negligent and directly caused the injury.
Each case is unique, requiring thorough investigation and expert testimony to establish liability and damages accurately.
Missouri law generally allows two years from the date of injury to file a medical malpractice claim, known as the statute of limitations. There are exceptions depending on the circumstances, so timely consultation is important.
Contacting an attorney promptly can help preserve your rights and ensure all legal deadlines are met.
Victims may recover compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related losses caused by the provider’s negligence.
The specific damages available depend on the nature and impact of the injury sustained.
