Why do many lawyers refuse to take on cases involving medical negligence?

A common reason attorneys decline medical negligence cases is due to the intricacies and high costs associated with such litigation. To illustrate, pursuing an average medical negligence case may entail around $100,000 in expenses, which include payments for expert witnesses, filing fees, and deposition costs. Thus, unless a patient has suffered severe injuries, it often lacks financial viability to proceed with a medical malpractice lawsuit.
