Malpractice is a type of tort in
which the misfeasance, malfeasance or nonfeasance of a professional
under a duty to act fails to follow generally accepted professional
standards.
It is committed by a
professional or her/his subordinates on behalf of a client or
patient that causes damages to the client or patient.
Accountants, lawyers, and other
professionals can be charged with malpractice. The term is
most commonly associated with medical professionals (e.g., doctors,
nurses, hospital technicians.) Most medical malpractice suits are
for negligence on the part of medical professionals in providing
expected level of care.
The most
publicized forms are medical malpractice and legal malpractice by
medical practitioners and lawyers respectively, though company
CEO's, investment advisors, schools/teachers
and other professional service providers can fall under the
malpractice umbrella as well.
