Long Island Medical Malpractice Lawyers to Answer Your Questions

Medical malpractice lawyers help people who are injured by doctors and other medical practitioners’ negligent acts. More specifically, the American Bar Association defines medical malpractice as “negligence committed by a professional health-care provider—a doctor, a nurse, a dentist, a technician, a hospital, or a nursing facility—whose performance of duties departs from a standard of practice of those with similar training and experience, resulting in harm to a patient.” The professional Long Island medical malpractice lawyers of Duffy and Duffy are well equipped to help you evaluate and, if feasible, pursue your medical malpractice case in Long Island, Nassau County and New York State.

Most medical malpractice cases in Long Island are against medical doctors who fail to use “reasonable care,” meaning that they fail to follow the standard protocols for their medical specialty. Although the media likes to decry medical malpractice lawyers as damaging the medical community with mega jury awards, these are rare and are only awarded against negligent doctors who cause extreme harm. Oftentimes, these awards are reduced by the trial judge or appellate court. The reality is that judgments are awarded to make clients whole after they suffer harm (damages) by negligent medical practitioners.
