Medical Malpractice
A focused practice for patients and families harmed by negligent medical care in Maryland and the District of Columbia.
When the standard of care is not met.
Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider's conduct falls below the standard of care expected of a reasonably competent provider in the same field, and that failure causes injury to a patient. Establishing a malpractice case requires proof of the standard, of the deviation from it, and of the resulting harm, typically through qualified expert testimony.
Maryland law also imposes specific procedural requirements, including a Health Care Alternative Dispute Resolution Office filing and a certificate of qualified expert. These requirements demand experienced counsel from the outset.
