At the Law Offices of Gast & McClellan we specialize in medical malpractice law – a complex and challenging type of law involving negligence on the part of a healthcare professional or facility.
Medical malpractice occurs when a physician, nurse, doctor, hospital or other healthcare provider performs a negligent or careless act that breaches the accepted standard of care recognized by other providers. It can result from a failure to act or from acting improperly. Examples include removal of the incorrect limb, the administration of excessive medication, misdiagnosis or even death. To be successful with a case a patient and their lawyer must prove that a healthcare provider or facility acted negligently, that an injury occurred, and that the negligent act played a substantial part in causing the injury.
