Re: Medical Malpractice resulting in death

It is certainly possible that you may be able to file a wrongful death claim. You will certainly need to have the medical records reviewed by a malpractice attorney. After that is down that attorney may then send them out to an appropriate expert who will confirm that there was malpractice or will confirm that there was not.

Not every tragic result is malpractice, but there are ways to find out by reviewing the records because duringthe course of delivery there are many warning signs that can appear.
