Their attorney will also use that documentation to demonstrate future anticipated expenses. They will also elicit testimony from the patient and family members to show non-economic losses, such as pain and suffering and loss of consortium.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Medical malpractice cases are <strong>highly technical<\/strong>. An attorney will almost certainly use expert witnesses to testify about the medical issues in language jurors can readily comprehend. The defendant may also use\u202fexpert witnesses to present an alternate explanation. The party that proves their claims by a preponderance of evidence will prevail in the lawsuit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the malpractice and the patient\u2019s injuries and losses are apparent, a medical service provider often prefers to settle the case out of court. To recover the largest available settlement award, patients should verify that their lawyer has experience negotiating with insurance carriers, which will inevitably attempt to minimize damages payments.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Do_Not_Hesitate_to_Hire_a_Medical_Malpractice_Attorney\"><\/span>Do Not Hesitate to Hire a Medical Malpractice Attorney&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www-media.floridabar.org\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Amendments-to-Rules-of-Civil-Procedure-1.070-Process-and-1.650-Medical-Malpractice-Presuit-Screening-Rule.pdf\">Florida Civil Practice Rule 1.650<\/a>, to proceed with a medical malpractice lawsuit, an injured patient <strong>must<\/strong>:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Serve a notice of intent to sue on all prospective defendants.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adhere to pre-suit discovery rules that allow the parties to gather information about the malpractice claim.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Follow strict statute of limitation deadlines that coordinate with the timing of the pre-suit notice of intent to sue.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Their lawyer must also obtain an affidavit from a medical professional confirming that the patient\u2019s injuries are connected to medical negligence.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter ctamobile\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background\" href=\"tel:5613759500\" style=\"background:linear-gradient(135deg,rgb(206,166,44) 0%,rgb(135,106,2) 91%)\" rel=\"\">Call Now to Speak With an Experienced Medical Malpractice Lawyer <br>&nbsp;561-375-9500<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter ctadesktop\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background\" href=\"\/contact-us\/\" style=\"background:linear-gradient(135deg,rgb(206,166,44) 0%,rgb(135,106,2) 91%)\" rel=\"\">Call Now to Speak With an Experienced Medical Malpractice Lawyer <br>&nbsp;Click Here<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Statute_of_Limitations\"><\/span>Statute of Limitations&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Florida gives injured patients two years from the date of the incident&#8211;or when the patient should have discovered the injury&#8211;to file a malpractice injury lawsuit.
