Sharks in the Water – Watch Out for Unethical Lawyers

Did My Doctor Fail to Diagnose My Condition?

FAILURE TO DIAGNOSE If you are wondering, "Did my doctor fail to diagnose my condition," causing the condition to worsen, leaving me in a much worse position than if it had been diagnosed in a timely manner?  Sometimes failing to diagnose a condition can lead to serious medical problems and even death.  A doctor is responsible for identifying symptoms and conditions.  If a doctor sees symptoms, but cannot diagnose them, he should refer the patient to a specialist that can.  Doctors should take into account the medical history of the person, as increased risk for certain diseases is an important part of the diagnostic process.

If you are sitting there wondering “Why did [...]

Why Won’t Any Medical Malpractice Attorney Take My Case?

THE ATTORNEY REVIEW PROCESS FOR MEDICAL MALPRACTICE CASES Your grandmother went to the hospital with a stomach ache and died.  You’ve called every attorney in town and they won’t take the case. You even have evidence that they too heavily sedated her, and that she did not have a condition that she should have died from.  You keep asking yourself, “Why won’t a medical malpractice attorney take my case?” Usually, a Medical Malpractice  is handled on a contingency fee, which means that you don't pay anything until the case is settled or there is a verdict in your favor, and they are paid out of the proceeds.  If they lose the case, you pay nothing, but [...]

Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Bicycle Accidents

Many cities, including New York City, are encouraging residents and visitors to use bikes to get around the city.  There are more bike lanes being put in every day, and you can rent a "Citi-bike" just about anywhere.  It's not surprising that this has resulted in an increasing number of bike accidents citywide.  They only have two wheels, so they are easy to tip over when they are hit by a car.  There is no protection other than a helmet for the bicyclist, so injuries from bike accidents tend to be serious.  If you are injured in a bicycle accident, an experienced bicycle accident attorney in NYC can explain the law as it applies to [...]
