Does winning lawsuits for pap smear misdiagnosis resulting in cervical cancer really make a difference?

- It provides the victims with compensation for their financial losses as well as their emotional and mental damages.

If the victim was the breadwinner, the wages they expected to earn can be recovered by a jury award. This may enable their children to attend college and their spouse to keep the family home.
- A financial award at the conclusion of a successful lawsuit may make it possible for the victim to get medical care that can improve their condition or at the very least provide them with some physical relief. Money can’t fix anything but very often it can improve one’s quality of life and sometimes that includes winning lawsuits for a pap smear misdiagnosis resulting in cervical cancer.
- Winning lawsuits for pap smear misdiagnosis resulting in cervical cancer sends a message from the victim to the negligent physician that must be held accountable for their actions or inaction.
