Your Voice In Seeking Justice

When health care professionals fail in their duty of care, the consequences can be devastating. If you suspect this has happened, you need answers – and justice. A medical malpractice lawyer from Langer & Langer can help you get them.

Medical malpractice occurs when a patient is harmed due to negligent medical treatment. It can manifest in numerous ways, such as misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medication mistakes, or failure to treat.

These errors can have life-altering impacts, often leaving victims with significant physical, emotional, and financial burdens.

At Langer & Langer, we understand the profound distress that medical malpractice can cause. Operating from Valparaiso, Indiana, we extend our dedicated legal services across the state, including in West Lafayette.

We are committed to helping those affected by medical negligence find their voice and claim the justice they deserve. We do this by holding health care professionals accountable for their negligence and seeking compensation for the patient’s financial losses, pain and suffering, and other costs.

The Long-Term Effects Of Medical Malpractice

Medical malpractice has repercussions that are not just immediate; they can also have long-lasting effects on one’s health and overall quality of life.

Victims may face chronic pain, disability, loss of income and immense emotional trauma. These enduring challenges highlight the critical need for skilled legal representation to secure adequate compensation and support recovery.

Proving Medical Malpractice With Langer & Langer

Proving medical malpractice involves demonstrating that the general standard of care expected of health care professionals was breached and caused harm. This process includes:

  1. Establishing the duty of care: Showing that a health care provider-patient relationship existed, establishing the provider’s duty to treat according to the generally accepted standard of care in their profession.
  2. Breach of that duty: Identifying how the provider failed to meet these standards.
  3. Causation: Linking the breach directly to the harm the patient sustained.
  4. Damages: Documenting the losses and suffering resulting from the malpractice.

These steps require deep legal knowledge and meticulous attention to detail, qualities that our lawyers at Langer & Langer possess. With over 100 combined years of legal experience, particularly in medical malpractice, our legal team is equipped to handle even the most complex cases.
