This often involves obtaining medical records, consulting with medical experts, and demonstrating that the provider's actions deviated from what a reasonable healthcare provider would have done in a similar situation. Additionally, it may be necessary to establish a direct link between the provider's actions and the patient's injuries.

There are generally four main types of negligence laws: ordinary negligence, which involves a failure to exercise reasonable care; gross negligence, which indicates a severe lack of care that demonstrates a reckless disregard for the safety of others; comparative negligence, which assesses the degree of fault of each party involved in an incident; and contributory negligence, where a plaintiff's own negligence can bar them from recovering damages.
