From Google News Search: "malpractice" How much does a medical malpractice attorney in CA make on average? Q. I know I want to go to law school after I get my bachelor's, but I'm still undecided as to what branch of law I'm going to study. Right about now, I've got it narrowed down to corporate attorney, prosecuting attorney, and medical malpractice attorney. So I'm curious as to what they make, even if it's just an average or frame. Asked by It's Kyle! - Sun Dec 6 14:45:33 2009 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments A. Stay away from medical malpractice. The insurance industry successfully lobbied congress to cap medical malpractice lawsuits in order to limit their costs. Lawyers don't make much money in that field anymore. This is actually one of the few moves by insurance lobbyists I agree with.

Does our government determine the guidelines for malpractice insurance or is this strictly up to the Insurance companies and the states?

It's also moderately cheaper for the doctors. Regarding coverages, the insurance companies, for the most part, are allowed to design exactly how the policy forms are written - as long as they still comply with state law.

Q. "There is now a great controversy over the amount monetary awards granted to plaintiffs in malpractice lawsuits brought against doctors and other medical personnel by patients." Some awards, for instance, go into the millions. Do you feel that such rewards are too much?

No. The reality is that the publicity about medical malpractice has been a disservice to many patients and probably been bad for health care. According to a peer-reviewed study by (I think Harvard Medical School), fewer than 5% of victims of malpractice act on a claim. The few that do must find a doctor familiar with the area of practice in the community to review the claim and say that it has merit before they can even go forward. This is really hard, even for the best claim, and the money outlay is significant.
