Medical Malpractice – Holding Healthcare Providers Accountable in Georgia
Law for Georgia, LLC

When we seek medical care, we place our trust in the hands of professionals—doctors, nurses, and hospitals—expecting safe, competent treatment. Unfortunately, that trust is sometimes broken. Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider fails to meet the standard of care and causes injury or death to a patient. At Law for Georgia, LLC, we help victims of medical negligence pursue justice and recover the compensation they deserve.

What Is Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice occurs when a doctor, hospital, or other healthcare provider fails to act with the level of care and skill that a competent provider would use under similar circumstances. Not every poor outcome is malpractice—but when avoidable mistakes lead to harm, patients have legal rights.

To succeed in a malpractice claim, the injured patient must prove:

1. A provider-patient relationship existed

2. The provider breached the standard of care

3. The breach caused injury or harm

4. The patient suffered damages (physical, emotional, or financial)

2. Surgical Errors

• Operating on the wrong site or organ

Your Right to Compensation
