- Denial of a medical abortion
- Refusal of treatment for a miscarriage
- Forced or coerced sterilization
- Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis
- Medical negligence during fertility treatments
- Failure to obtain informed consent before any reproductive procedure
- Botched reproductive surgeries such as a hysterectomy or tubal ligation

Texas And Reproductive Health Care Laws: What To Know
Texas has very complex laws regarding reproductive health. Statutes such as the Texas Medical Liability Act govern how we file claims for medical negligence. You must prove that a doctor-patient relationship existed and that the provider breached their duty of care. You also need to show that the negligence directly caused your injuries. We must also provide a report from a qualified medical professional within 120 days of filing a suit.
Texas abortion restrictions and informed consent laws for minors can also impact your case. These laws often create confusion for doctors. However, a provider cannot claim ignorance or uncertainty as an excuse to ignore a life-threatening emergency.
