FAQ About Hospital Malpractice
In Phoenix, Arizona and Taking Cases Nationwide
When would I file a medical malpractice lawsuit against a hospital as opposed to an individual doctor?
You would file a lawsuit against a hospital when the negligent behavior of nurses, other hospital staff, or agents are to blame for catastrophic injury or wrongful death. For example, if staff fails to act in a reasonable manner or if safety rules and regulations at a hospital are not properly enforced, a hospital malpractice lawsuit could be filed.
How much does it cost to file a hospital malpractice lawsuit?
No reputable hospital malpractice lawyer will charge up-front legal fees. At Snyder & Wenner, P.C., we operate on a 'no recovery, no fee' basis.
What happens if I contract a serious infection while recovering from surgery in the hospital?
This is unfortunately quite common due to the sheer number of sick people in close proximity to you. As such, there are many standard safety precautions that hospitals must abide by to prevent the spread of disease and infection. If the hospital staff did not abide by these standards and a serious infection occurs, the hospital could be held liable for damages.
