Legal Question in Medical Malpractice in Pennsylvania

Re: staph infection

Whether or not you have a malpractice case will depend on a number of factors including, when this occurred, whether you have permanent damages, whether it can be demonstrated that you�re treating doctors were careless in treating your knee, etc.

It is impossible to tell from the brief information you�ve given whether there is a malpractice case. There is more to the story, as uncomplicated �fluid on the knee�, by itself would not be the cause of a five day hospitalization.

Generally a malpractice attorney will speak with you over the phone, without cost. This gives the attorney a chance to decide if they are interested in reviewing your case, and gives you a chance to decide if the attorney sounds like someone you believe could best represent you.

If you believe you may have a case you need to begin contacting malpractice attorneys as soon as possible, preferably on Monday.
