What Is Wrongful Death Due to Medical Malpractice?
Wrongful death occurs when a patient dies as a result of substandard medical care. Well-respected studies show that up to 100,000 Americans die each year from medical errors — making it one of the leading causes of death in the country.
When a patient dies unexpectedly, surviving family members are often left with unanswered questions:
- Could the death have been prevented?
- Did a doctor, nurse, or hospital make a fatal mistake?
- Was there a misdiagnosis or delay in treatment?
Our experienced legal team is trained to uncover medical negligence and advocate for families seeking justice.
Common Causes of Wrongful Death
Many different types of medical errors can lead to wrongful death. Some of the most common causes include:
Failure to Diagnose: Missing a condition can delay life-saving treatment.
Missed Diagnosis: Incorrect diagnoses can allow serious illnesses (like cancer) to worsen and become fatal.
Delayed Diagnosis: Failure to promptly evaluate and treat critical conditions can prove deadly.
Lost or Delayed Test Results: Timely test results are essential for proper treatment; delays can be fatal.
Prescription Medication Errors: Incorrectly prescribed or dosed medications can cause severe harm or death.
Surgical and Anesthesia Errors: Mistakes during surgery or anesthesia can have fatal consequences.
Failure to Provide Appropriate Post-Surgical Care: Poor post-operative care can lead to complications and wrongful death.
At Castel & Hall, LLP, we work tirelessly to investigate these tragic cases and fight for the families left behind.
