Misdiagnosis of Cancer Lawsuit
Have you been diagnosed with cancer and then been told that the diagnosis was wrong? Has the misdiagnosis of cancer led to the removal of part of your body, your breast, testicle, lung or other organ?
If a misdiagnosis of cancer leads to the negligent removal of a breast, testicle, lung lobe, or other body part, you have the right to seek compensation for your “damages.” In a medical malpractice lawsuit, damages can include monetary compensation for the following:
- Past and future medical expenses
- Past and future lost wages
- Past and future pain and suffering
- Emotional suffering
- Loss of earning potential
