Georgia injury lawyers are acutely aware of the so-called \u201ctort reform\u201d changes in the law which has limited and in some cases eliminated the rights of victims of medical malpractice<\/a>. Unfortunately, most Georgia citizens are unaware that since 2005, emergency rooms have been a place where there is no liability for injuries caused by careless healthcare providers. Current Georgia law makes it virtually impossible for an injured patient to seek accountability in the Courts because it requires an injured victim to show by \u201cclear and convincing evidence\u201d that the medical provider acted with \u201cgross negligence\u201d. For three (3) years, some lawmakers from both parties have attempted to pass a Bill that would do away with the \u201cgross negligence\u201d and allow patients with severe cases to go to court. Lets hope that this will be the year that victims of emergency room medical malpractice will have their rights restored.
