Medical Malpractice Attorneys in Florida

Over 80 Years of Combined Legal Experience

When you visit a medical provider—whether a doctor, dentist, pediatrician, specialist, or emergency room nurse—you expect to receive adequate treatment and care. Unfortunately, this does not always happen. Like anyone, medical providers can and do make mistakes. Unlike everyone, however, medical providers and facilities are held to a high standard of care, meaning they can be held liable for mistakes when those mistakes should not have happened and they resulted in injury, death, or harm.

At Michles & Booth, we represent clients in a variety of medical malpractice claims. This is a complex area of law, one which requires the knowledge and skill of a proven legal team. If you believe you or a loved one was the victim of medical negligence, reach out to our Florida medical malpractice lawyers as soon as possible for a free consultation. We are prepared to put over 80 years of combined experience and a proven track record of results on your side.

What Constitutes Medical Malpractice?

Doctors, nurses, hospitals, and other medical providers and facilities owe their patients a duty of care. This does not mean they are not allowed to make any mistakes whatsoever. It does mean, however, that medical providers can be held liable when they make mistakes that other competent/qualified medical professionals would not have made. Generally speaking, this is known as negligence.

Medical malpractice encompasses both negligent and, less-commonly, wrongful actions of medical providers. Some examples include:

• Misdiagnosis
• Failure to diagnose
• Delayed diagnosis
• Failure to treat
• Surgical errors
• Anesthesia errors
• Birth injuries
• Nursing home abuse/negligence
• Incorrect medication dosage
• Wrong medication
• Pharmacy errors
• Laboratory mistakes
• Misreading/ignoring lab results
• Failure to take patient history into account
• Premature discharge
• Negligent/improper aftercare
• Dental negligence/malpractice

If you believe you have a medical malpractice claim, it is imperative that you speak to a qualified attorney as soon as possible, as there are time limits to file your claim.
