Can I Still File a Medical Malpractice Claim If I Signed a Consent Form?

If you signed a consent form prior to a medical procedure, and negligence occurred during that procedure, then YES, you can still file a medical malpractice claim.A consent form is not a waiver of a physician’s liability; it simply states that you are aware of the risks involved with your medical procedure. To file a claim, you may want to get the professional help of a Chicago medical malpractice attorney. Just because you signed a waiver does not give a physician the right to commit medical malpractice. Any damages that you suffered due to the procedure may entitle you to compensation. Your compensation will depend on the extent of the damages, and how these damages will affect your life. For instance, you may claim damages for: 

  • Any medical attention that you need as a result of the malpractice;
  • Any pain and suffering that you have experienced (physical and/or emotional); and
  • Any loss of past, present or future wages. 

When you consult a Chicago medical malpractice attorney, they can estimate the value of your medical malpractice claim. While the outcome of a claim is never guaranteed, an experienced attorney may be able to get you the money you deserve.Hiring a Chicago Medical Malpractice AttorneyYou should be able to recover from your injuries without worrying about court documents and filing paperwork.
