Sugar Land Medical Malpractice Attorney
Have you been the victim of medical malpractice?
Medical malpractice occurs when treatment by a healthcare provider is contrary to the acceptable standard of medical care, causing patient injury. When an expected result does not occur, or a mistake has been made, this does not mean there has been medical malpractice. For medical treatment to be considered negligent there needs to be a delay or a failure regarding: diagnosis, providing appropriate treatment, and the accurate performance of surgery or post-operative treatment. These actions go well beyond simple mistakes or errors.
We trust healthcare professionals with our lives each day. When they are negligent or reckless in the performance of their duties, then severe and life changing injuries, suffering, and wrongful death can result. The competent Sugar Land personal injury lawyers at The León Law Firm, P.C. have the experience and investigation skills you can rely on to determine if medical negligence has occurred in your case.
