Even small oversights—like failing to request copies of medical charts or treatment logs—can weaken your case. Our firm ensures that every critical detail is documented from the very beginning.
What to Know About Hospital Negligence
Hospital negligence can occur without warning, leaving patients harmed, confused, and facing unexpected medical complications or expenses. Hospitals have a duty to provide proper care, and even a single mistake—whether made by a nurse, physician, technician, or staff member—can result in severe injuries. Common scenarios include medication errors, misdiagnosis, surgical mistakes, improper monitoring, and failure to treat conditions in a timely manner.
If you or a loved one has been harmed due to hospital negligence, taking immediate action is crucial. Evidence such as medical records, staff logs, treatment charts, and expert evaluations are essential to establishing liability. Boyadzhyan Law Firm specializes in hospital negligence cases, working with medical experts, investigators, and insurance providers to ensure victims receive the compensation they deserve.
Even conditions that seem minor at first can worsen due to hospital errors, so prompt medical and legal intervention is critical. Our attorneys manage every aspect of your hospital negligence claim—from securing medical documentation to negotiating with insurers or pursuing litigation—so you can focus on recovery while we fight for your rights.
Who’s Liable in a Hospital Negligence Case?
Hospital negligence cases can be complex because multiple parties may be responsible for the harm caused. Liability may extend beyond the hospital itself and include:
Doctors and Surgeons
Medical professionals who make errors in diagnosis, treatment, surgery, or follow-up care.
Nurses and Hospital Staff
Staff responsible for medication administration, patient monitoring, record-keeping, or direct patient care.
Hospital Administration
If improper policies, understaffing, or inadequate supervision contributed to the negligence.
It’s essential to determine exactly what went wrong during a hospital stay or medical treatment. Our team conducts detailed investigations, reviewing medical charts, hospital protocols, staff communications, and expert analyses to establish liability. We also know how to challenge denied claims, expose negligence, and hold all parties accountable, whether it’s hospital staff, administrators, or manufacturers whose actions contributed to the harm.
Common Causes of Hospital Negligence
Hospital negligence can occur in an instant and often results in life-altering injuries. Some of the most frequent causes include:
- Medication Errors
- Misdiagnosis or Delayed Diagnosis
- Surgical Errors
- Improper Monitoring
- Hospital-Acquired Infections
Determining exactly what caused the negligence is critical. Our attorneys perform thorough investigations, reviewing medical records, treatment notes, hospital procedures, and expert opinions to identify every responsible party. We also challenge denied claims, uncover unsafe medical practices, and hold negligent hospitals and professionals accountable for the harm they cause.

Patients and families often face challenges when hospitals attempt to deny wrongdoing, alter records, or shift responsibility. Hiring an experienced attorney early ensures critical evidence is preserved and strengthens your case.

- Internal Injuries

Why Hospital Negligence Cases Require Aggressive Legal Action
Hospital negligence can happen during procedures, diagnosis, treatment, or aftercare—and recovering full compensation is rarely straightforward. Liability may extend across multiple parties, including hospital staff, administrators, and third-party providers, creating complex layers of responsibility and insurance coverage.
Patients often face legal and insurance challenges because hospitals may attempt to minimize errors, deny responsibility, or delay claims. When you’ve suffered harm due to negligence, you may be up against sophisticated legal teams and insurance carriers working to reduce payouts.
That’s why Boyadzhyan Law Firm approaches every hospital negligence case with urgency and precision. We gather key evidence, hold all responsible parties accountable, and aggressively pursue compensation for your injuries, medical expenses, lost income, and long-term damages.

Common Causes of Hospital Negligence
Hospital negligence can happen quickly and unexpectedly. Some of the most common causes include:
- Medication Errors - Incorrect dosages or wrong medications administered to patients.
- Surgical Mistakes - Retained objects, wrong-site operations, or procedural errors.
- Inadequate Monitoring – Failure to track vital signs or respond to patient deterioration.
- Misdiagnosis – Incorrect or delayed diagnosis leading to worsening conditions.
- Staffing Issues – Understaffed or improperly trained personnel contributing to errors.
According to national healthcare safety data, medical errors remain a leading cause of serious injuries and fatalities in the U.S. These statistics highlight the importance of proper hospital protocols, adequate staffing, and adherence to medical standards to prevent negligence.
How Hospital Negligence Insurance Coverage Works
Understanding insurance coverage in hospital negligence claims is essential but often complex. Coverage may depend on provider policies, hospital liability insurance, and malpractice provisions. Key areas include:
Hospital Liability Insurance
Covers negligence by nurses, technicians, and hospital-employed staff.
Physician Malpractice Insurance
Independent doctors or specialists may carry separate malpractice policies.
Medical Group or Corporate Insurance
In cases involving contracted medical teams or third-party providers.
Accessing compensation after hospital negligence can be challenging, especially if multiple policies or providers are involved. Insurance companies may dispute claims, question medical circumstances, or delay the process. At Boyadzhyan Law Firm, we gather essential evidence—including medical charts, treatment logs, expert evaluations, and hospital documentation—to establish liability and pursue full compensation.
