Medical malpractice in Pennsylvania is generally defined as the negligent or unskilled treatment by a healthcare professional that deviates from accepted medical care standards and results in injury to the patient. To successfully establish a compensable medical malpractice claim in Pennsylvania, a plaintiff must establish the following three elements:
- a professional duty owed by the medical professional to the plaintiff
- breach of this duty by the defendant; and
- the injury was a proximate result of the defendant’s breach.
Medical malpractice claims are complicated and require adequate resources of time and money to prepare. Carefully reviewing the evidence and analyzing the merits of a case require evaluation by seasoned, expert professionals, who are expensive. Experience is crucial.
