More details to this question:
I am an alcoholic. I sought treatment in a residential treatment center in 2008. While in treatment my therapist and I entered into a personal and sexual relationship. This continued after my stay and she offered to move me into her home. After about 1 year she had employment issues and lost her job. I was able to find a professional job that could support us but it was out of state. She at this time proposed we marry and have a long distance marriage. The last 3 years we have been living back together and she has worked at 2 different hospitals. I have always had feelings that our marriage and entire life was all just a cover up for her actions to protect her reputation. I finally caught her in an affair with a technician at her last hospital and will now end the marriage. Do I have a claim of malpractice for this complete fabrication of the last 7 years?

Not likely, but it is possible with more facts. The bigger issue is noone will likely take such a case unless you arewilling to fund it as this clearly starts as a retaliatory divorce issue.
