Proving that a doctor and patient had a relationship and that the doctor had a duty to care for the patient will not be difficult. However, it is often much harder to prove that the healthcare provider breached their duty to care for a patient and that the patient suffered losses.
In order to prove this, a Charlotte medical malpractice attorney will have to investigate the entirety of the case. This will include:
Your attorney will work to prove that the standard of care provided by the healthcare professional was breached. In some cases, this will be readily apparent.
