How to Identify Medical Malpractice
When you step into a hospital, a doctor’s office, or a medical professional’s office, that professional assumes a duty of care on your behalf. That duty of care notes that the impacted professional must take reasonable steps to protect you from predictable harm. This means that medical professionals have an obligation to protect you when you trust them with your health.
Medical malpractice already feels violating. Knowing that a professional violated the duty of care they owed you can be equally devastating. If you can prove that breach, though, you can take action against the offending party in civil court.
To build your case, the Kenmore, NY, medical malpractice lawyers with Richmond Vona identify the specific act that saw a medical professional violate your duty of care. We then bring forward evidence of that breach, including statements from witnesses and third-party medical reports. In doing so, we fight for your right to demand damages from the offending party.

Taking Action After Instances of Medical Malpractice
You are not obligated to go to civil court with a medical malpractice case. Doing so, however, allows you to request financial support throughout your recovery. That support can make it easier for you to pay malpractice-related bills without overdoing it in the workplace.
If you want to go to civil court, though, you need to file a personal injury claim within New York’s relevant statute of limitations. According to New York Civil Practice Law & Rules Section 214, you only have three years to investigate your losses.
That said, medical malpractice cases benefit from a bit of flexibility. Most courts decree that your three-year timeline begins on the day you either suffer medical malpractice or discover that you’ve been the victim of medical malpractice. You can work with our attorneys to establish your specific deadline and act accordingly.
Contending With Insurance Providers After Instances of Medical Malpractice
You may have the right to file an insurance claim with a medical institution’s provider in the wake of medical malpractice. Doing so does not waive your right to a civil lawsuit. Instead, you must take steps to prove the value of your losses and the institution’s relationship to those losses to receive additional compensation for your pains.
Insurance providers often strive to make this process as complicated as possible. Most don’t want to pay you a fair settlement if they want to pay you any settlement at all. Fortunately, you don’t have to go into conversations with insurance providers on your own.
Our attorneys can work with you to file your initial insurance claim. As your claim progresses, we can challenge an insurance provider’s bad faith behavior and appeal wrongful denials. We can even sue an insurance provider if said provider deliberately obstructs your path to financial support.
