A:
more info is needed
anyone can sue at any time.
However, if the case is not strong enough a lawyer will not take it.
For instance:
What are your damages? did you seek the guidance of a professional after this happened? did the brother have a power of attorney? did you report this to the hospital and what did they say? what did his brother say?
what are you realistically looking to get? I assume he would not have known you were there?
A: You could have a case but more info is needed. And what your damages might be is uncertain. You should contact a personal injury lawyer and get a full consultation.
