Why is a Medical Negligence Case Different from other Personal Injury Cases?
Article by Mark Hudson
Medical Negligence comes under the purview of personal injury, and the law provides compensation to individuals who have suffered injuries due to negligence on part of doctors, nurses, attendants, hospital staff and also chemists and pharmacists. Because any medical procedures has its chances of success and failure, the injury must be unexpected – that means, the patient must have no idea that the injury is a possibility in a medical treatment and it must also be recognized as unacceptable by prevalent medical standards.

NY Personal Injury Attorney Recovers $1.4 Million in a Medical Malpractice Case
New York, NY (PRWEB) March 1, 2010
New York Personal Injury Attorneys – Frekhtman and Associates (http://www.866attylaw.com) recovered $ 1.4 million in a medical malpractice case. The case involved an infant who lost his eyesight due to a failure to diagnose a brain tumor. The delay in diagnosis of a brain tumor was brief (around 4 months) from the onset of symptoms until the time when his pediatrician correctly diagnosed the condition. Due to this brief period, many medical experts said that there was no causation or that the blindness was not caused due to the failure to diagnose the condition in a timely fashion. Most doctors argued that even if the defendant in this case had correctly diagnosed the brain tumor four months earlier, the infant would still suffer the same injuries. This is a common argument and issue in medical malpractice cases.
