Malpractice Lawsuit New York
Once you make a decision to proceed with a medical malpractice lawsuit in the state of New York, you will quickly realize how fortunate you are to be represented by a knowledgeable, experienced attorney like Jeffrey J. Shapiro. The primary legal hurdle that must be met in order to sustain a claim of medical malpractice is significant. You must prove that the medical care that you received did not meet the standard of care that would be expected of a medical professional in your community.
A doctor or other individual who is a defendant in medical malpractice litigation would, of course, be seeking to prove that this standard of care was met or exceeded. Ordinarily the plaintiff would present testimony by a medical expert to support the contention of malpractice. Experienced attorneys who have a long track record of fighting for justice for their medical malpractice plaintiffs build an extensive network of medical experts on whom they can call for powerful and persuasive testimony when needed.
