Experienced Medical Malpractice Lawyer in California

We trust doctors, nurses, and medical professionals to safeguard our health. But when that trust is broken through negligence or error, the consequences can be devastating. At California Trial Law Group, PC, we help victims of medical malpractice hold healthcare providers accountable and seek the compensation they need to heal and move forward.

What Is Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider deviates from the standard of care expected in their profession, resulting in harm to the patient. To establish a malpractice case in California, a claimant must prove:

1. A doctor-patient relationship existed
2. The provider was negligent
3. This negligence caused an injury
4. The injury led to specific damages

Not every poor outcome is malpractice, but when injuries result from preventable mistakes, patients have the right to pursue justice.

Common Types of Medical Malpractice

Our firm has experience handling a wide range of malpractice claims, including:

• Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis: When conditions like cancer or stroke are overlooked or caught too late
• Surgical errors: Performing the wrong procedure, operating on the wrong body part, or leaving surgical instruments behind
• Medication mistakes: Prescribing the wrong drug or dosage, or failing to account for allergies
• Birth injuries: Preventable complications during delivery that lead to cerebral palsy, nerve damage, or maternal injury
• Anesthesia errors: Overdose, failure to monitor, or improper intubation
• Hospital negligence: Infections, understaffing, or poor hygiene that lead to patient harm

Each case requires a deep investigation into medical records, expert opinions, and healthcare protocols.

Who Can Be Held Liable?

Liability in medical malpractice cases may extend beyond just the treating physician. Responsible parties may include:

• Surgeons and specialists
• Primary care physicians
• Nurses and anesthesiologists
• Radiologists and lab technicians
• Hospitals, clinics, or urgent care facilities
• Pharmacists and pharmacy chains

We pursue full accountability from all individuals and institutions whose errors contributed to your injury.

Compensation in Medical Malpractice Cases

Medical negligence can lead to immense physical, emotional, and financial strain. Under California law, injured patients may seek damages for:

• Medical costs, including future care needs
• Lost income and diminished earning capacity
• Pain and suffering
• Loss of enjoyment of life
• Permanent disability or disfigurement

California does cap non-economic damages in some medical malpractice cases, making it essential to work with a skilled attorney who understands how to maximize your claim under state law.
