Supply NC Medical Malpractice Attorney - Medical Negligence Lawyer

The National Academy of Sciences estimates that approximately 98,000 people die from medical mistakes each year. Not all injuries or deaths are a result of the negligence of a healthcare provider. Often, patients may experience a bad result of a medical procedure that was a known risk of the procedure, and the risk was communicated to and accepted by the patient. In such cases, the injury or death will not support a malpractice action against the healthcare provider.

In NC, as in most states, a legal claim for medical malpractice arises when a patient’s injury or death is caused by act or omission by a health care provider in which care provided deviates from standards of practice in the medical community. Medical professionals are required to maintain appropriate liability insurance to cover the risk and costs of legal actions based on medical malpractice.

North Carolina General Statute § 1A-1, Rules of Civil Procedure, Rule 9(j) requires that a qualifying professional review a medical malpractice case and have an opinion that the potential defendants in a case deviated from the appropriate standard of care and that the deviation caused the damages. In many cases, it can be difficult and expensive to obtain such a professional opinion which is part of what makes medical malpractice cases sometimes difficult to pursue.
