The Citron Law Firm- Florida Personal Injury and Accident Attorneys

Medical Malpractice

Doctors, nurses, dentists, chiropractors, podiatrists, nurses and other hospital staff help patients recover from illness and injury. Unfortunately, many people who turn to these providers are injured by negligence or die from medical errors every year – and, sadly, many of these errors are preventable.

For many years, Howard Citron worked as a lawyer defending hospitals, doctors and nursing homes. He has seen the most egregious medical and nursing errors up close and personal and has been able to defend many of these claims. Mr. Citron knows the inside and out of a medical negligence claim and his experience in this field of law serves as a significant asset and benefit to his clients.

Without question, when a healthcare provider negligently harms or injures a patient, a claim for medical malpractice should be filed. To be able to maintain a medical malpractice case in Florida, a patient must be able to prove that the subject healthcare provider violated the standard of care in the medical or nursing community and that this breach caused the patient to be injured. Florida requires a patient to provide notice of the claim to the physician or healthcare provider and give them a chance to investigate the patient’s allegations. Under Florida law, a patient is entitled to both economic (wage loss and medical bills) and non–economic (pain and suffering) damages as a result of the provider’s misconduct.
