What are the typical types of cases that a Malpractice lawyer handles?

As a Malpractice lawyer, the typical types of cases I handle involve medical malpractice, legal malpractice, and accounting malpractice.

Medical malpractice cases involve negligence by a healthcare provider that results in injury or death to the patient. This can include misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medication errors, birth injuries, and failure to diagnose.

Legal malpractice cases involve negligence by an attorney that results in harm to their client. This can include missed filing deadlines, failure to represent the client competently, and breach of fiduciary duty.

Accounting malpractice cases involve negligence by an accountant that results in harm to their client. This can include errors in financial statements, fraudulent activity, and breach of contract.

It is important to note that malpractice cases can be complex and challenging to prove. It is necessary to have expert witnesses and extensive evidence to support a claim. Additionally, each state may have specific laws governing malpractice claims that need to be considered.

If you believe you have a malpractice claim, it is recommended to consult with an experienced malpractice attorney as soon as possible to discuss the specific facts of your case and determine if you have a viable claim.
