Hulk Hogan Files Medical Malpractice Claim

14 Feb Hulk Hogan Files Medical Malpractice Claim

Hulk Hogan is likely one of the most well-known wrestlers in the world. Like many people in athletics, he has, over the course of his career, suffered some grievous injuries to his body as a result of how he makes his paychecks. According to Cageside Seats, Hulk Hogan is filing a lawsuit against a Tampa Bay medical facility that performed procedures on his back.

This may seem like light reading to anybody considering a medical malpractice claim, but there is a lot in this claim that reveals why many medical malpractice claims are filed.

Loss of Work

According to the lawsuit, the wrestler endured procedures that were recommended by staff at the clinic he is suing that did him no good. He also claims that the procedures further destabilized his back, according to the reports. Because of this, the lawsuit alleges that Hogan did not receive proper treatment in a timely manner and that affected his ability to do his job, which is wrestling in a ring for this particular individual.

One of the most common forms of damages added to medical malpractice claims are those that are related to the loss of work. When somebody is injured by a negligent physician, they do not receive needed treatments or are given treatments that are useless, they may very well end up not being able to perform their jobs. This adds onto the expenses that they suffer due to the medical negligence the lost wages that they would've received had they been given proper treatment.

While it may be a rare occasion that celebrity news actually offers something useful, this particular story does offer something that people can genuinely use if they are filing a medical malpractice lawsuit or considering doing so.

If you go in for a consultation with a Dallas medical malpractice law firm, make certain that you let them know whether or not you have suffered a loss of earning potential because of the medical malpractice you endured. It's very common for this to happen. Even if you work a desk job, it may be the case that the medical malpractice visited upon you by a negligent physician, hospital or other health care provider could have put you out of work long enough to make a real difference in your financial life. This is an entirely legitimate reason for you to add those damages to your lawsuit.
