Hi - without any residual damages, there is presumably no medical malpractice case. In any lawsuit, there has to be damages. While it sounds like the medical attendant made an error, without any damages (and a possible risk), this would not rise to the level of a case an attorney would consider. If... View More

Doubtful. You committed potentially a felony - assault with a deadly weapon. You were not under the threat of imminent harm (unless he was pointing a gun or weapon at your car). You should have driven away and sought a restraining order if you were under threat of imminent harm by his threats.
I entered into the class action suit. If I read it correctly, I won't owe them anything until I get a settlement. It's been a few years and my life has taken a few turns. I can't risk owing them more than I win (I've accumulated medical debt and am worried I will be leaving my... View More

Who are you going to sue? Your parents? It was gift. If you really wanted to real sets, you could have returned the gift and put in $50.00 more yourself. I doubt any lawyer would take this case.

Hi. No experience here - but here's my instinct - I suspect crowd surfing would be considered an unreasonable dangerous activity. The crowd surfer "assumed the risk" of falling, injury, etc... I do not believe that the Security Guard had a responsibility here to catch the crowd... View More
