    If a medical error, misdiagnosis, delayed treatment, or surgical mistake led to severe injury or worsened condition, you may have a claim.

  • Can I sue a hospital for a nurse or doctor’s mistake?

    Yes. If hospital staff members acted negligently while performing their duties, the hospital may be liable for their actions.
