Strong Representation In A Medical Malpractice Case

Each medical malpractice case is unique and must be examined meticulously. With the help of one of our attorneys at Bart Durham Injury Law, we can show you the three elements necessary in a successful malpractice case:

  • Breach of duty. We will prove that the surgeon’s work fell below the standard of care owed to the patient.
  • Injury. We will prove that you suffered an injury due to the negligence of the surgeon.
  • Damages. We will prove that you sustained a long-lasting, negative outcome from the surgical procedure, physically, psychologically, emotionally and/or financially.

Types Of Surgical Errors

Common surgical errors that our attorneys have experience with that are a result of medical malpractice are:

  • Anesthesia errors
  • Accidental damage done to surrounding ligaments, tendons, muscles and tissues
