A New Hampshire attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for a week. Until you are able to consult with a local attorney, the first thing to check could be the terms of the policy. If it clearly spells out coverage for hearing aids, that could be the simplest and most direct... View More

In 1964 my great grandmother was shot and killed by a man who was having a psychotic episode that included hallucinations. He had been released from a mental hospital just a few days before. This happened in New Hampshire. Can the hospital be held liable for prematurely releasing him?

If you were within the statute of limitations, this would have been a case worth investigating. If the hospital... View More

If something bad happened by their not doing wha they should have possibly. Consult a member of the NH Assn for Justice--they give free consults.
The office overcharged us and it was only caught after they started billing my insurance for visits we didn't have. They admit to the overcharge, but 2 years later they only will say, "We are working on it." I no longer live in the state.
