Deterrence, Intervention, Countersuit Prosecution...
Run by physicians for physicians, Medical Justice® is a membership-based organization offering proactive services that protect physicians' reputations and deter proponents of frivolous medical malpractice lawsuits.
Medical Justice Works...
Nationwide, physicians are sued at a rate of 8-10% - with Medical Justice® that rate falls below2%!
How We Do It...
While Medical Justice® is sensitive to the fact there are legitimate claims by patients who have been harmed by negligent care, the fact remains that the majority of cases are ultimately deemed without merit. Medical Justice® harnesses the principles of medicine, law, and business to defeat dishonest plaintiffs, unethical attorneys, and unscrupulous expert witnesses, using three key objectives:
- Deter frivolous lawsuits
- Warn proponents of lawsuits with a strategic Early Intervention Program
- Enable members to take corrective legal action or pursue such action in Medical Justice's name when requested and appropriate
Medical Justice members are licensed to use Medical Justice's intellectual property; deterring meritless legal actions, creating a critical practice infrastructure to strengthen the future use of legal remedies should a frivolous suit be pursued.
When a claim is made against a member physician, Medical Justice® activates an early intervention strategy. Not infrequently, this facet is enough to persuade the plaintiff to drop a meritless case.
If a frivolous case proceeds to court and results in a win for the physician, it is reviewed by other Medical Justice® members in the same field of practice to determine whether the testimony violated professional ethical standards. If the answer is yes, Medical Justice® directly pursues sanctions in extralegal venues. This benefit inures not only to the member in question, but also to all members, by preventing unethical parties from causing future harm to others. Medical Justice® will also, if warranted, allocate up to $100,000 to pursue a countersuit directly against the proponent of the lawsuit.
