Different People have Different Opinions of a Medical Negligence Claim Lawyer

Ask any doctor on the street which group of people they hate the most and one of the answers they give will include a Medical negligence claim lawyer.

Some of their gripes about this type of lawyer are that they are always on a witch hunt, looking for people they can pin the blame on. It does not matter whether the doctor is innocent; this group of lawyers have one-track minds and do not listen to reason all in the name of money.

But ask a recent patient who has been victims of clinical negligence, and they will say that a Medical negligence claim lawyer does not deserve to be on the most hated list.

Some of the praises they shower on their lawyers include being able to get justice for the errors that a doctor committed. They also credit their lawyer with being able to secure damages to either correct any temporary errors or to make sure they can live with the permanent ones doctors left them with.

And in the case of the lawyers, most tend to take a more neutral opinion of themselves. They are not overly negative like doctors, nor are they extremely positive like clients.

As far as they are concerned, if doctors make a mistake, it will come out in court and they will be punished for it. And if a patient deserves to get damages, they will get whatever is needed to cover any surgeries or medical supplies that they need.


A Doctor Will Naturally Loath a Medical Negligence Claim Lawyer


Ask a doctor what type of person they hate the most and a Medical negligence claim lawyer will undoubtedly make it to the top of this list.

For many doctors, just hearing the news of a lawyer being in a hospital sends shivers up their spines because unless they have sustained any injured themselves, a lawyer will most likely cause injury to a poor hapless doctor’s medical practice.

And if not for their Hippocratic Oath, chances are any doctor will pass on the opportunity to treat an injured lawyer because they just loath them. In fact, may secretly be happy if they would just drop dead and die.

Other than sometimes filing frivolous and even unfair claims cases, some doctors feel that lawyers can not be trusted. They will be nice and congenial in the operating room or in the clinic but will turn hostile when questioning a doctor on the witness stand in a court case.

Many will say that their presence prevents doctors from being able to practice medicine properly, which is to do it without the threat of litigation. And the effect is that doctors end up being unnecessarily careful.

But people like patients will disagree. Patients, especially the ones who have been victimised by a doctor’s negligence, feel that the presence of a Medical negligence claim lawyer keeps doctors from making mistakes.

With them around, doctors will naturally be at their best behaviour and will always make sure their patients get the right care.
