Maryland medical malpractice attorney Marcus Boston explains why you must be really sure you want to go forward with a Maryland medical malpractice case.
Just recently we were contacted by a person who was looking for help with a perforated bile duct during a gallbladder surgery. This person was just trying to find answer to the questions they had and was not looking to hire a lawyer right away.
We talked for a while and one of the biggest things I stressed to this person was that with these types of cases, whether it be a doctor making an error during surgery, to some type of misdiagnosis, to whatever, you really have to understand that these cases can take a long time to complete and because of this, they can be draining on you, and if you have a family, your family too.
In many cases, people get caught up in what is shown to them on TV and in the news and when in reality, this process is nothing like that. Doctors, hospitals, and other medical professionals take a possible medical malpractice claim seriously and will do all they can to push back and fight these claims. This does not mean that you cannot be successful in your case, it just means that you must spend some time thinking about is this something that you really want to do.
The truth of the matter is that only you, and your family if you have one, are in the position to really know the answer to this question.
