Medical Malpractice Settlements
It can be difficult to get full compensation for medical malpractice. The victims of malpractice have to negotiate with the accused doctor and their insurance company legally referred to as defendants.
Victims should be compensated for their losses, but how exactly do juries and judges calculate a case's value? This article will look at the most important factors that go into the calculation of a settlement for malpractice.
Damages
Generally, a medical malpractice settlement consists of two distinct types of damages both economic and non-economic. Economic damages are based upon certain losses like medical bills and the cost of future care. Non-economic damages are based on a claimant's suffering disfigurement, loss of enjoyment of life, and other.
You and your attorney will consult with financial experts and economists to determine the value of your damages.
