How Much Proof Do Medical Malpractice Cases Require in Okemos?

Medical malpractice cases require a certain amount of proof. If a doctor makes a mistake that causes harm but the patient recovers, there is often not enough proof to win the case. Our Okemos medical malpractice attorneys understand how to find the proof our clients’ cases require. The following are things patients/plaintiffs need to prove in medical malpractice cases:

• The doctor had a duty to act reasonably.
• The doctor breached that duty.
• The breach caused harm to the patient.
• The harm was significant.
• The patient suffered damages.

Can a Medical Malpractice Claim Be Resolved Outside of Court?

Many medical malpractice cases are resolved outside of court. Malpractice cases that are resolved outside of court are usually resolved through a settlement, which is an out-of-court agreement. In a settlement, the parties agree on an amount of compensation. The court can decide on an amount of compensation if the parties cannot agree on a settlement.
