Medical Malpractice Expert in Wisconsin

A study conducted by the Institute of Medicine of the National Academy of Sciences estimates that up to 98,000 patients die in the hospital each year due to medical error. Aside from death, there are also numerous injuries that occur in a hospital setting, many of which result in long-term physical and emotional damage. JD.MD offers professional malpractice service through unbiased and reliable case evaluations and expert witness testimony for medical or dental malpractice. Our number one goal is to help our clients receive compensation for their loss and suffering.

In Wisconsin, state law allows patients to pursue a medical malpractice claim up to 3 years from the date of injury and requires them to follow a specific process to successfully seek damages. A victim of medical malpractice can receive as much as $750,000 in non-economic damages based on pain, suffering, emotional distress, loss of society or companionship. Victims can also seek monetary compensation for direct economic damages such as lost wages, medical expenses, and tangible expenses that occurred due to the medical malpractice itself.
