Even highly trained and experienced doctors make mistakes, therefore any claim of malpractice has to be backed by other elements like breach, proximate cause and actual injury. For instance the case where a physician fails to properly sterilize their equipment prior to administering anesthesia and the patient suffers an infection due to the infection the doctor could be liable for malpractice attorneys.
Lawsuits alleging malpractice are typically filed in state trial courts where the alleged misconduct occurred. Federal courts may, however, have jurisdiction in certain situations.

Alternatively, some claims are resolved through binding arbitration that is voluntary.
