Hospitals are often vicariously liable for the negligence of its employees. This could mean nurses, receptionists, assistants and employed doctors. Many physicians, however, are independent contractors. In these cases, the negligent doctor might be personally liable for damages. Either way, someone else may owe your family compensation for causing your avoidable injury, illness, hospital infection, or a loved one’s death.
If your lawyer can prove another party’s responsibility for causing your damages, you could receive reimbursement. Past and future medical bills, lost income, lost quality of life, physical pain, emotional suffering, and legal expenses are all compensable damages under Washington’s civil laws. Ask our attorneys what your medical negligence claim might be worth today.
