Negligencia médica

¿Qué se considera negligencia médica? Cuando la mayoría de nosotros escuchamos el término, inmediatamente pensamos en «El cirujano cometió un error durante una operación». Si bien este es un aspecto importante de los casos de negligencia médica, esta clasificación también puede incluir otros problemas, como el diagnóstico erróneo o tardío de cáncer u otras enfermedades potencialmente mortales, errores de medicación, problemas con la anestesia y más.

Si usted o un familiar sufre porque un médico, enfermero, anestesiólogo u otro profesional de la salud cometió un error que no está respetando, los abogados de negligencia médica de Drummond Law Firm en Las Vegas quieren saber de usted. Seamos honestos, los casos de negligencia médica pueden ser difíciles de probar; son más complejos que muchos tipos de demandas por lesiones personales, pero las indemnizaciones otorgadas a clientes bien representados pueden ser sustanciales, ayudando a compensar el dolor, el sufrimiento, el tiempo perdido en el trabajo y otros problemas derivados de las demandas por negligencia médica.

La definición simple de negligencia médica (cortesía de Wikipedia) ayuda a quienes no pertenecen al ámbito médico a comprender mejor qué es. Wikipedia la define como “negligencia profesional por acción u omisión (énfasis nuestro) por parte de un profesional de la salud, en la que el tratamiento no cumple con los estándares aceptados…” La negligencia médica resulta en lesiones graves o incluso la muerte del paciente, y en la mayoría de los casos se debe a errores médicos por parte de médicos, enfermeras, hospitales y otros profesionales de la salud.

Según la prestigiosa publicación Becker’s Hospital Review, la gravedad de las lesiones involucradas en reclamos por mala praxis médica es alta: más del 30 por ciento de los reclamos se presentan después de la muerte del paciente y aproximadamente el 12 por ciento cuando el paciente queda cuadripléjico y requiere cuidados de por vida.

El diecinueve por ciento de los casos implican una lesión permanente “significativa” y el dieciocho por ciento una lesión permanente “mayor”.

Una razón por la que los casos de negligencia médica son difíciles de probar y ganar es que no todos los errores cometidos por médicos, enfermeras, etc., se consideran negligencia médica. El profesional médico debe ser negligente, incompetente o carente de la debida pericia. Si cree que un profesional médico le ha causado daño, nuestro equipo legal puede ayudarle a recopilar pruebas e investigar su caso. Si no creemos que existan pruebas significativas para presentar una demanda por negligencia médica, se lo haremos saber.

Nadie disfruta del proceso de demandar por negligencia médica, pero a veces es necesario solicitar ayuda legal. Entendemos sus preocupaciones, pero entendemos que priorizamos a nuestros clientes, especialmente a aquellos que sufren. Si usted o un familiar sufre por la negligencia de un médico, enfermero u otro personal médico, los abogados de negligencia médica de Drummond Law Firm en Las Vegas podrían ayudarle. Su consulta inicial es gratuita y muchos casos se toman con honorarios de contingencia, lo que significa que solo nos paga después de ganar su caso.

This firm, the staff and Craig Drummond are amazing! They are efficient, pleasant, professional and highly responsive. I worked in the legal field during my career span and truly appreciate the knowledge of Mr. Drummond. I recently was assisting a family member with some legal concerns and reached out to Mr. Drummond and Ximena for guidance. Although he does not practice in this area, he got back to me the very next morning - less than 10 hours later after emailing him at 10pm. He gave very sound and detailed advice and guidance. He also was kind enough to offer referrals to trusted attorneys in the field. I truly am grateful that I have had the opportunity to meet and deal with Craig Drummond, Esq. and consider myself so fortunate. Aloha, B.J. Souza

I can say that they have very good Communication they’re very nice. Everyone that I met was very nice if I had any questions they would be more than glad to answer although I wish some things would turn out a little different, but it wasn’t nothing to do with them. Overall my experience with them was very good. They stay on top of everything and let you know everything. . So if I had to, I would definitely use them again.

Craig Drummond and all of his staff are fantastic people to work with. I was involved in an accident where I was rear-ended by someone in a company vehicle that resulted in a traumatic brain injury. The personal attention that I received and the recommended Medical treatment was invaluable to me. My vehicle was totaled as I was pushed into the SUV in front of me. My award from the judge was in the seven figures. I highly recommend his law firm for any type of injury case somebody might have

After my husband and I got in an accident, Drummond Law Firm was the first call we made and they set up a meeting to meet with us the next day. From day one, Drummond Law Firm worked diligently and kept us updated every step of the way. Every person at Drummond Law Firm is extremely kind, educated, and patient with every phone call, text and email we sent and we are extremely thankful for the hard work from every person on their team to ensure my husband and I were taken care of. Couldn't thank them or recommend them enough!

Craig Drummond, Esq.

Abogado fundador

Quería pilotar F-14 como Tom Cruise en Top Gun. Pero las gafas acabaron con ese sueño a finales de los 80, cuando no se aprobó la cirugía correctiva para los pilotos. Así que encontré otra forma de servir y descubrí que se me daba bien defender lo que es correcto.
