If you believe you're the victim of medical malpractice, you want to meet with an attorney that has experience in the field of medicine, that has the ability and understanding of reading medical charts, that has an understanding of the type of procedure that you received, or the damage or injury that you received as a result of the negligence of that physician. It's important that the lawyer also has the ability to go or has experience in going to court on medical malpractice claims. You're going to want to ask that attorney what their experience is in those areas.
