Medical Malpractice Damages
Victims of medical malpractice may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses (these can include past expenses as well as expenses that are expected to show up in the future), lost wages, as well as damages for pain and suffering. The spouse of a victim may be eligible for loss of consortium damages, which compensate for loss of companionship, care, and affection. Families of victims, who are killed because of the medical negligence of doctors, nurses and other heath care professionals, may also be eligible to file a wrongful death claim.
Medical malpractice litigation is very complex, expensive and time consuming. That's why it is important that families of such victims get in touch with a DeKalb County medical malpractice lawyer as soon as possible.
