Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare professional fails to uphold the reasonable standard of care when treating or interacting with patients. Their negligent actions or failure to act under acceptable medical protocol can cause devastating, avoidable patient harm. Some examples include:

• Misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose health issues timely
• Surgical errors and mistakes made during procedures
• Improper or contraindicated medication prescribing that leads to adverse reactions
• Inadequate infection control practices and contamination
• Childbirth injuries due to delivery room errors
• Poor treatment of emergency room patients
• Failure to refer patients to needed specialists promptly

By law, all healthcare providers must adhere to meet or exceed the reasonable standard of care expected of their practice. Patients who are injured due to negligent medical care often do have legal grounds to pursue a malpractice claim or lawsuit under California laws. A lawyer experienced with medical liability cases can assess the merit of your situation if you’ve been a victim in Eastvale or surrounding cities.

The lawyers of Moseley Collins Law advocate for innocent patients who’ve endured devastating harm, permanent disability, or wrongful death because negligent medical care providers violated standard protocols. Some severe injuries we often see in malpractice cases include:

• Brain damage or traumatic brain injury (TBI) with lasting deficits
• Spinal cord injuries leading to partial or total paralysis
• Amputation of limbs due to medical errors
• Birth injuries causing cerebral palsy, Erb's or Klumpke's palsy, etc.
• Cardiac injuries from surgical mistakes during heart procedures
• Misdiagnosed cancer allowed to progress in the body for too long
• Medication error overdoses destroying organ function
• Severe infections such as sepsis, MRSA, epidural abscesses, etc.
• Strokes hitting younger adults due to negligence
• Failure to diagnose increased intracranial pressure led to impaired sight
• Medical neglect during inpatient Psych care led to patient suicide

Errors frequently happen when overworked, fatigued staff try to rush care. Poor safety cultures at understaffed hospitals also contribute heavily to catastrophic negligence incidents. Patients too often pay the price with their health when pressured healthcare professionals cut corners.

In particular, our lawyers call out risky areas prone to errors such as Emergency Rooms, maternity and infant care units, operating and recovery rooms, as well as inpatient psychiatric facilities. Patients undergoing invasive treatments like surgery, childbirth, or those with critical emergent conditions too often suffer harm by the hands that are supposed to be helping them heal.

We help victims make sense of how quality care went awry. And should legal merits support a case - we customize tailored legal guidance on wise recourse options we can provide every step of the way toward justice and making negligent providers accountable.

To prove malpractice and liability, our lawyers must demonstrate four key elements:

1. A provider-patient relationship existed where a duty of care was required
2. The healthcare provider violated medical standard protocols or acted negligently
3. The patient suffered additional injury or damages directly tied to their negligence
4. Significant evidence shows more likely than not medical error caused the harm

Collecting and connecting all these pieces requires deep litigation capabilities - why victims need powerhouse lawyers up against billion-dollar hospitals.

We see many fatal outcomes when doctors fail urgent diagnoses - especially surrounding heart attacks, stroke, blood clots, infections, or internal organ trauma. Operative and post-operative negligence also leads to deadly bleeds, reactions to anesthesia, or pulmonary embolisms. Kids left unattended, patient falls, medication errors, or hunger/dehydration while hospitalized also play a role.

Quite possibly - as post-discharge negligence disputes constitute some of our highest value settlements. We build strong arguments around premature discharges, incomplete treatment, poor discharge instructions, and failure to follow-up properly. The short- and long-term effects directly link back to a poor inpatient stay ending in a preventable fatality.

In California there is a 1 year statute of limitations from the date of harm, or from the date a reasonable person should have discovered negligence, to file a medical liability lawsuit. Minors injured by malpractice get the 1 year countdown upon turning age 18. It is imperative to engage experienced lawyers immediately - as cases take months to prep and leftover time gets very short.

From understaffing issues to poor facility safety, we have seen hundreds of hospital liability cases often tied to:

• Negligent exposure to infections, falls, traumas, and other preventable injuries
• Allowing unqualified, dangerous, or improperly trained/supervised staff to treat patients
• Failure to adequately maintain facilities and equipment
• Not supplying or using standard protocols around infection control, fall risks, injections, procedures, therapies and other environmental safety factors.
• Recovering compensation for injured victims depends on proving hospital liability based on these and other forms of administrative negligence.
