Often the first step in pursuing a medical malpractice case is the realization that something has gone horribly wrong. A bad result is not necessarily malpractice, but often potential claimants realize that something happened that should not have happened if the appropriate care had been given. In such a case, potential claimants should consult an attorney experienced in medical malpractice litigation who can assist in determining whether or not there was medical malpractice or negligence.
