We provide specialized assistance and representation for the reparation of losses suffered by victims or their families as a result of cases of medical malpractice.
According to the law, malpractice is the professional error committed in the exercise of the medical or medico-pharmaceutical act, causing damage to the patient, involving the civil liability of the medical staff and the supplier of medical, sanitary and pharmaceutical products and services.
The medical staff is liable civilly, disciplinaryly and criminally for the damages caused by error, which also include negligence, imprudence or insufficient medical knowledge in the exercise of the profession, through individual acts in the framework of prevention, diagnosis or treatment procedures.
Compensation consisting of moral or material damages can be requested both in the case of civil liability by filing actions in court, and in the case of criminal liability of the medical staff, by being constituted as a civil party.
Moreover, the medical staff can be excluded from the profession if a disciplinary sanction is imposed on them.
It should be remembered that acts of malpractice in the medical activity of prevention, diagnosis and treatment are prescribed within 3 years from the occurrence of the injury, with the exception of the acts that represent crimes, so we recommend that you seek the services of a specialized lawyer in good time in the field.
We also offer legal assistance and representation of doctors in civil, criminal or disciplinary proceedings.
