Punitive Damages in Medical Malpractice

Punitive damages in medical malpractice cases are rare but may be awarded in cases of extreme negligence or misconduct:

1. Extreme Behavior: Punitive damages may be considered when healthcare providers exhibit reckless or intentional misconduct.
2. Deterrence: They are intended to punish the defendant and deter similar actions in the future.
3. Case Specific: Awarding punitive damages depends on the unique circumstances of each case.

While punitive damages are infrequent, they serve as a deterrent to prevent egregious medical malpractice. Legal advice is crucial for understanding their potential applicability in your case.
