Medical Malpractice

Guidance From a Florida Medical Malpractice Attorney

We place our trust in medical providers, but doctors, surgeons and medical professionals are human beings and sometimes they make mistakes that can lead to pain, suffering and long-term consequences for their patients. If you think you may be a victim of malpractice, contact medical malpractice attorney Richard A. Bokor at Bokor Law to discuss your case.

WHAT IS A MEDICAL MALPRACTICE CLAIM?

A medical malpractice claim is a claim against a medical provider who fails to meet the acceptable standard of care and injures a patient.

ARE MALPRACTICE CLAIMS ONLY BROUGHT AGAINST DOCTORS?

Medical malpractice claims can be made against medical doctors, hospitals, nurses and other entities controlled by a hospital, such as emergency rooms and pathologists.

DO I HAVE A VIABLE MEDICAL MALPRACTICE CLAIM?

You do not have to be severely hurt to bring about a medical malpractice claim, but for a medical malpractice lawyer to take your case, you must demonstrate a serious claim for your case to be considered.

WHAT DAMAGES MIGHT I BE AWARDED?

Medical malpractice damages are the same as damages for any other personal injury.

WHAT IS THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS FOR A MEDICAL MALPRACTICE CASE IN FLORIDA?

The statute of limitations for medical malpractice claims is two years after you knew or should have known that you were suffering from malpractice or up to seven years under certain circumstances. Many times, a person does not know that their inability to recover is due to a standard of care deviation. To find out if you have a case, contact a medical malpractice attorney right away.

CAN I STILL RECOVER DAMAGES IF I SIGNED A CONSENT FORM?

A medical provider cannot “contract away” their liability for malpractice. Even if you signed a form acknowledging the risks, you still have rights.

Why Choose Bokor Law

Good Advice & Skilled Damage Assessment

Personal Injury Attorney

When you or a loved one has been injured and you need a motorcycle crash lawyer, wrongful death lawyer, medical malpractice lawyer or another type of personal injury attorney in Tampa, FL, Richard A. Bokor and Bokor Law will provide you with good advice and skilled damage assessment.

Richard and his staff understand that crashes and injuries always require medical attention, and possibly surgeries, physical therapy, speech therapy and more, and it is all expensive. When the medical bills are due and bill collectors begin harassing you for immediate payment, you may be tempted to take the early and quicker settlement. However, in most cases, early settlement benefits the insurance company and not you, the injured.

Richard has years of experience assessing the value of injuries in terms of what settlements are fair and just, and he will help you look at the big picture, considering how your injuries may affect you not just today, but down the road. Richard will consider everything from lost wages, possible career-ending injuries, ongoing therapy, potential need for surgery in the future and so much more. Your injury may heal in a few months, but you may need compensation to care for the pain, emotional trauma and possible lifetime of inconvenience and suffering due to your injury. As your personal injury attorney, Richard will be there for you to help you make the best decision so you will be sure to get the maximum compensation you deserve.
