Medical malpractice is a common cause of personal injury, permanent disability and wrongful death. These injuries may occur when a doctor or other health care provider fails to provide reasonably appropriate or common standards of care or fails to diagnose a detectable illness or condition.

Doctors and other health care providers are required to follow certain standards when treating their patients. When a serious injury or death results from a failure to follow these standards, there may be a cause of action for medical malpractice.
