I got 2 syringes of lip fillers September of last year which cost me 1,800 USD. A few weeks after recovery, I noticed a large pooling of filler to which my esthetician assured me was normal and to rub the nodule, and give it time. Over time, however, it grew worse.

If this is a TN case, then you are about to run out of time under the SOL. Health Torts require a Good Faith Claim Affidavit PRIOR to suit. Unless you find a malpractice lawyer immediately that can find someone to assert negligence, you have already lost. The potential damage award may not... View More

That would be a GTLA suit which few lawyers know how to file. It appears that you do not have any damages, so I do not recommend filing suit.

A Tennessee attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. In terms of medical bills and any lost wages stemming from the accident, that would usually be handled as a workers' comp case. In terms of a personal injury action related to the bite, she could reach out to... View More

Since no arrest, only a short stop and detainment, damages are minimal. The Tickets(Citations) must be dismissed by the Court. So you need an attorney to go to Court on the Rule Of The Road Violations, and an attorney that knows GTLA law so a Federal Civil Rights Suit can be brought, or at... View More

There is no "average" settlement amount. It all depends on how much you have been damaged and how good your attorney is in convincing the other side of the risk and exposure. The amount of insurance coverage also determines, including your own "under insured motorist" coverage.... View More

Those are two different causes of actions, so two different demand letters, by the respective claimants only, would be better. But you definitely need an attorney. There are tons of PI lawyers, but on a rear ender with good liability, any decent lawyer should be able to handle it. Damages are... View More

Gathering and preserving evidence at this point is vital should a lawsuit be filed in the future.

The Tennessee Healthcare Liability Act is not the easiest to follow. While not a complete answer, you must show some deviation from a standard of care and then an act that is not a known risk. Please feel free to reach out to us at Howe.Law if we can be of any help.

Engaging in mutual combat can result in criminal charges and other legal consequences. Additionally, attempting to challenge a... View More
