Who Is Responsible for Medical Malpractice?

Attorney Paul OConnor

Very often when people come to us with a medical malpractice claim, they have in their mind who they believe to be the responsible party. Our job is to go through all of the medical records, speak with our experts, have them review the medical records as well so as to determine who is actually the responsible party for the bad outcome.

A lot of times people will come to us and say well it was Dr. Jones who did this and he performed an unnecessary surgery for example and that’s why I’m in the position I’m in today. Very often when you go through the medical records you come to realize that really Dr. Jones wasn’t at fault because Dr. Jones was given bad information by for example a pathologist or a radiologist or some other person who gave him misinformation which caused him to go and do the surgery in the first place.

So it’s important for us as the attorney’s to not put blinders on to make sure that we are doing a thorough and complete analysis of all of the facts so we only end up with those parties that are responsible.
