sing lawyer prepare his defense. The memo that you draft on your computer detailing the information you gained in that interview would be covered by
a. Criminal code. b.doctor-patient confidentiality c. witness immunity d. work-product privilege.
this question really needs to be asked in another forum
Can I refile? Can I file ch. 7? I still have $20k in medical debt and am supporting 3 children. I still owe my attorney $1,200.00, (b/c of his negligence!) and he won’t see me unless I have cash in hand. I am in dire need of help, I lost my car after the dismissal, and now I have to beg rides to get to my new job, and people aren’t exactly lining up to loan me money for even an old clunker with a dismissal. I have been rejected by everyone, even though I make good money now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The attorney did you a disservice. He should have filed to have the case converted to a 7 if you could, at that point. I would consult another attorney on this, but…the downside is that they may charge you a large retainer, but try to work out a payment plan if your income is better now. Good luck.
1) Doctors make mistakes all the time. Should they not be held accountable for their mistakes?
2) Malpractice cases are RARELY won by patients.
3) Malpractice cases account for a very small percentage of overall health care costs in this country.
Why do people look at Malpractice cases as being the problem with medical care in this country? Do you think the health care lobbyists in Washington, D.C. have something to do with this? Do you think that Doctors should not be held accountable for the mistakes that they make?
Bill H, if the doctor operated on your child and left some gauze inside you would be the first inline at that lawyers office.
You think 30-40% is too much for a lawyers fee, why not instead complain about the cost of every office visit instead.
Additionally most of these lawyers charge 0 fees upfront. Lawsuits last for years, and during this time the lawyer gets nothing, he has to feed his kids and family. For like 2 years of work, he doesnt even get that much, just because he gets it in a lump sum doesnt some how undermine the work the lawyer does.
Bogus medical malpractice suits are the primary cause of the high cost of medicine. It takes the form of astronomical malpractice insurance premiums and massive legal staff required to defend and pre-empt these suits. Can anyone name a famous politician who has proposed solving this root cause of out of control medical costs?
This is not only not the primary cause of medical costs, it is not even a major cause. Bogus suits, as you say, are routinely dismissed before they cost much at all. Suits that result in actual payouts are suits with merit, resulting from doctors who did not do their duty properly. The increase in insurance premiums is also largely unrelated to payouts. It is much more driven by the performance of the securities in which the premiums are invested. To illustrate this, look at California. They instituted payout caps, but did not see the reduction in premiums the insurance companies predicted. Rather, rates went up again. If you want the problem solved, tell your elected officials to go after the insurance companies. This won’t happen, since insurance companies are huge campaign donors.
http://injury.parrlaw.com – Indiana medical malpractice lawyer Paul Kruse states that if you believe that you or a family member has been a victim of malpractice, you should talk to an attorney as soon as possible. Indiana law sets strict deadlines on how much you have to file a claim and if you missed your deadline, you will not be able to pursue the claim at all.

Then the surgeon will use a gloved hand to conduct a vaginal examination and will check the size and location of the uterus by pressing on your lower abdomen.
Your doctor will then use a retractor to open the vagina.
Once the cervix is visible, a forceps is used to grasp the front lip of the cervix …
and to pull it forward – causing the uterus to open.
Through that opening, your doctor will insert an instrument called a hysteroscope.
A hysteroscope allows the surgical team to insert all necessary optical and surgical instruments into the uterus. Medical Malpractice
At the beginning of the procedure, a harmless gas or fluid will be introduced into the uterus, causing it to expand.
By inflating the uterus slightly, your doctor is better able to reach the operative site.
Next, a wire loop is inserted. This loop is used to grab the fibroid tissue and snip it free from the muscular wall of the uterus. Medical Malpractice
When your doctor is satisfied that all fibrous tissue has been removed,
the hysteroscope and all other instruments are withdrawn. The gas or fluid is allowed to escape …
and the uterus returns to its normal shape.

If you become a doctor are the odds that one day you will face malpractice great? Is there a sorce that gives a number on how many doctors are sued each year?
definately inevitible. that is why all doctors have malpractice insurance:
1: everyone makes a mistake at some point
2. we are a law-suit filing kind of country aparently
you should be able to check with the state medical board (or medical insurance board…which would be more accurate) for the statistics in your area.
