you need to sue, not only for your sake but for creating an awareness. The doctor you sue and also the rest who come to know of it will perform surgery with consciousness. Many are of the opinion that they dont have to worry since they dont lose anything.they tend to think  others problems are trivial. when they know it will hit them too they will come to terms.\nif you need help contact amylawassociates@gmail.com

Consulting a good medical malpractice (personal injury attorney) would be the "best" possible solution. They will nbe able to guide you and inform you of the possible solutions and outcomes.\n   If you need help in location one, contact your local bar association.\n\n   Good Luck!

Many things. get a good legal representative who would both look after his interests and maybe pursue any malpractice. You have every right to be concerned and it makes you think that you could wish this does not happen nowadays but unfortunately it does. Good luck.

You may go to www. probono.com for initial guidance but after that you should go and personally meet the lawyer concerned for legal assistance. For torts on account of personal loss or injury, you can contact a civil lawyer who deals with accident claims and medical negligence matters.

If you want to file a malpractice suit, you will need to contact a lawyer. The sooner the better. He or she can tell you if you have a case. They will also have access to experts who they can use to help you build a case. Since the laws vary from state to state (and country to country), you need someone who knows medical malpractice law in your area.

Because this would be considered a personal injury, most attorneys will take the case on contingency.  That means instead of paying them an hourly rate, they will take a percentage of the settlement amount.  I suggest you call your local bar association for a referral and stop discussing the details of this case in public forums.

The Bible says if we have a dispute to take it before a judge, so suing is not biblically wrong.\n\nHowever, an honest lawyer will tell you that medical malpractice cases are very difficult to win.  I would suggest returning to the doctor and explaining what is still wrong and asking him to fix it.  If he does not want to, then try calling or writing the department director, or if it is at a hospital, write or call the Patient Advocate (sometimes called the Ombudsman) or the Medical Director, they will usually get things fixed right.

I have read your previous question:\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Ao1grVAAeLJuM8JSTcwQYjjsy6IX?qid=20060605193038AA1TtGf\n\nYou are an idiot.  They are doing everything they need to do for you.  The court system is in place for real problems, not for people like you that think you are entitled to everything for no good reason.  Get over it.  They are paying your medical bills and have apologized to you.  You do not deserve any additional money...the bite did not even break the skin!  Because of people like you our court system...and our emergency rooms...are tied up for stupid reasons.  There was no reason for you to go to the ER.  \n\nIf it was possible I would sue you for $5,000 for putting up with your stupidity.  Unfortunately, I'm not a "single mom", so I don't think I would have a case.

I don't quite understand the question.  Are you asking how to defend yourself against the lawsuit?  Your insurance company should be hiring a lawyer to represent you.

The client could consult with another lawyer, and find out what legal recourse, if any, he/she has.   If what you say is true, the client might have a case for legal malpractice. \n\n.

I would definatley go to another doctor part of a different hospital and get a second opinion.  This is not only medical malpractice, but medical negligence.  After that, I would go and sue.

There are a lot of cases that revolve around medical malpractice. I've even seen a lot of law firms that employee both doctors and lawyers, or people that specialize in both. Having both skills (law and medical), as difficult as that can be, can also yield a higher rate of understanding between the two fields. In a law firm, that means more money and more clients, and a higher success rate.

There shouldn't be any amount of time you have to wait.  In fact, the only laws that you should be wary of are statute of limitations laws.  Those are laws that prevent you from bringing a malpractice suit if you wait to long.  If you feel that there was malpractice, see an attorney right away.

You are entitled to a copy of any medical records of treatment, you just have to ask. Then a lawyer should be your next stop.

Yes get a lawyer.  In fact in a case like this they will be free working on contingent.\n\nYou may have a case for negligence under tort law.  Only a lawyer can advise and take the proper steps to get you a remedy.  Furthermore if you can track down any of the people who actually hurt you in the process of tting out you may have a case gainst them too.

No one is above the law. This is America. You can sue anyone if someone breaches his duty of care. You can take the doctor to court of justice if, what he had done is something so un usual that another practicing doctor on the same standard will not do. The doctrine of Medical Negligent is wide. The test is laid down in Bolam's case. You need to consult a lawyer who has experience is Medical Negligence suit.\n\nGood Luck to you
