Frequently asked questions
Can I claim compensation for medical malpractice in Czech Republic?
Yes. Czech law provides a basis for compensation claims where medical negligence can be established. Claims typically require expert medical evidence demonstrating a departure from the required standard of care. We advise on the viability of a claim based on the documentation and available evidence.
