To build a strong medical malpractice case, you’ll need specific evidence, such as:

• Medical Records: Documentation of your treatment, procedures, and diagnoses.
• Expert Testimony: Opinions from medical professionals confirming the standard of care was breached.
• Proof of Harm: Records showing how the malpractice caused your injury or worsened your condition.
• Financial Documentation: Bills or pay stubs to demonstrate medical costs or lost wages.
  Our team at Brain Injury Law New York will guide you through gathering and presenting this evidence effectively.

At Brain Injury Law New York, we operate on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay nothing upfront—our fees come from a percentage of your settlement or verdict only if we win your case. This approach removes financial risk and ensures access to accountability. We’ll discuss all costs transparently during your free consultation.

An admission of fault can bolster your case but isn’t enough on its own to prove malpractice. You must still demonstrate that their negligence directly caused your injury and resulted in damages. Our experienced attorneys will leverage any admissions alongside other evidence to maximize your claim.

Yes, hospitals can be held accountable if their staff—such as nurses, doctors, or technicians—commit negligence within their employment scope. Hospitals may also be liable for systemic failures, like inadequate staffing or defective equipment. We’ll investigate all parties responsible for your injury.
