Any party who has been injured or suffered illness as a result of a medical professional”s wrongdoing or negligence has the right to file a medical malpractice claim. In the event that a child suffers a birth injury or other condition at the hands of a medical professional, the child”s family has the legal right to seek compensation in a civil case. In a case where medical malpractice resulted in the death of a loved one, the patient”s dependants and beneficiaries may be eligible to file a claim.
