QUEENS DENTAL MALPRACTICE ATTORNEYS

Dentists owe a duty of care to their patients.  They must advise them about procedures that are necessary to maintain their dental health and their general health.  Specialist referrals are also very important.  A dentist that notices gum disease should refer the patient to a periodontist in a timely manner so that that periodontal disease does not progress into tooth loss.  Teeth that cannot be saved might need to be pulled.  Cost is often an issue as most people do not have dental insurance, but that should not impact the dentist’s work.  If a patient cannot afford the treatment the dentist recommends, they can be referred to a teaching hospital or clinic.  If you have suffered from the improper dental care you should contact Queens Dental Malpractice Attorneys to discuss your options.

Your Rights During The Coronavirus Pandemic

I have been saddened to hear so many stories about Asians and Asian-Americans being treated badly during this current health crisis. This is riding on the heels of nasty rhetoric from the Trump administration regarding immigrants and refugees. It’s important to know that Federal, New York State and New York City law prohibits discrimination in employment, housing and public accomodations. New York City laws are the strongest of all, prohibiting discriminatory lending practices, retaliation, discriminatory harassment and bias-based profiling by law enforcement. Who Is Protected From Discrimination? The purpose of discrimination laws is to protect people that are vulnerable to being treated poorly in our culture. Treating somebody badly for personal reasons or grudges is not [...]

What’s The Hype About Stacey Abrams?

We might just be seeing Stacey Abrams on the ticket for the 2020 Presidential election. The former Democratic Leader of the Georgia House of Representatives, and 2018 Democratic Party contender for Governor of Georgia, is being courted by several of the Democratic Presidential candidates as a running mate. This savvy Yale graduate was the first black woman to become the gubernatorial nominee for a major party and has launched “Fair Fight,” a voting rights organization taking the initiative on funding the training of voter protection teams in twenty battleground states. If she’s not on the ticket this year, she’s young enough to make a go at it later. In fact, she told “The Hill,” in January [...]

How to Settle A Car Accident Case

Only the tiniest percentage of traffic accident cases go to trial. That’s because it’s usually pretty clear how an accident happened, and if it’s not a compromise is used as a basis for settlement. It’s rare that a car accident is so complex that it requires the testimony of an accident reconstruction expert. If you’ve been seriously injured, information about the value for damages can be estimated from other cases where people had similar diagnoses and treatment. So why do you need a lawyer to represent you if the cases don’t go to trial? Personal injury attorneys know how to develop evidence for your case that will force the insurance to settle prior to trial. Here’s [...]
