Medical Malpractice

Experienced Medical Malpractice Attorney

Serving Lewiston, Auburn, Waterville, Augusta, Gardiner, ME, & Surrounding Areas

Medical malpractice is the failure of a doctor, hospital, or another healthcare provider to provide the quality of care that is required by community standards. Medical malpractice cases in Maine can occur for many reasons. It is possible that a doctor can make a diagnostic error, a nurse may administer the wrong medication or an anesthesiologist may administer an overdose.


When an error is made by a medical provider that rises to the level of negligence, the patient who suffers harm as a result of this mistake has the legal right to receive compensation for any injuries that they may have suffered due to the error. 


At Jim Mitchell & Jed Davis, P.A, we provide exceptional legal services to those who have been a victim of medical malpractice. Our team is here to thoroughly analyze the details of your case and help victims of medical negligence and their families get the answers and compensation they deserve.

Why You Need A Medical Malpractice Attorney On Your Side

Any medical malpractice lawsuit is a complicated undertaking and proving medical negligence is often a very difficult thing to do. Medical malpractice claims are nuanced in that there are a variety of facts that must be analyzed to make certain that your claim has merit and is permitted to be filed with a court. 


Medical malpractice lawsuits are complicated undertakings, especially compared with other injury-related legal claims. This is not just because legal issues and medical evidence can get very complex very quickly, it is also because a medical malpractice plaintiff needs to comply with a number of strict procedural rules right at the outset of the case.


In Maine, there is also a strict Statute of Limitations for filing medical malpractice complaints. The Statute of Limitations here is relatively short -- three years in most cases, with considerably shorter filing/notice deadlines for claims against government entities and their employees. That is why it is critical to consult with an attorney who specializes in medical malpractice law as soon as possible after the malpractice occurred. 


Medical malpractice is a serious offense, and you should not have to suffer further when you're injured because of someone else's careless or negligent actions. Hiring an attorney to help with your case will ensure that you obtain the benefits that you are owed during this very difficult time.
