What Is Medical Malpractice?
Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare professional fails to provide the standard of care expected, resulting in injury or death. Unfortunately, many victims and their families aren’t aware of the negligence due to the complexity of medical procedures and the lack of disclosure from medical staff.
Recognizing signs of malpractice can be challenging, but if you suspect negligence, it’s crucial to have an experienced attorney review your case. Our team at Polewski & Associates has the knowledge and resources to thoroughly investigate and determine the validity of your claim.
The Challenge of Proving Medical Malpractice
Proving medical malpractice is complex and requires a deep understanding of both medical and legal standards. Our team specializes in uncovering the truth behind medical records and articulating the evidence needed to support your case. We ensure that no detail is overlooked in our pursuit of justice for you and your family.

Types of Medical Malpractice
In every one of the hundreds of malpractice cases we have handled, there is one constant factor: A doctor wasn’t following basic safety rules or wasn’t paying attention. This isn’t shocking. In any profession, people will cut corners or think they’re above safety rules and regulations.
Medical malpractice cases do share a common denominator (a negligent provider), but they fall into many different categories. Here are some types of cases we handle:
- Hospital malpractice
- Emergency room errors
- Anesthesia errors
- Nursing malpractice
- Birth injuries
- Bariatric surgery malpractice
- Podiatrist malpractice
- Cosmetic surgery malpractice
- Gallbladder surgery malpractice
- Gynecological surgery malpractice
- Delayed or misdiagnosis
- Dental malpractice
Why You Need a Medical Malpractice Lawyer
Medical malpractice cases are difficult to prove, and finding the evidence to get started is becoming increasingly challenging. If you believe that you or a loved one is a victim of medical malpractice, it’s imperative that your case is reviewed by an experienced, highly skilled attorney.
You don’t necessarily have to choose us to handle your medical malpractice case. However, we do think you need to hire a dedicated malpractice attorney — not a neighbor, not a friend of a friend, and not some huge firm with 100 lawyers who never take on medical malpractice cases. Choose someone who understands what they are looking at when they look at medical records and knows what to do with the evidence they discover.
You wouldn’t hire a local family doctor to perform a complex brain surgery. Why would you hire a car accident lawyer to handle your medical malpractice case?
