Contact a member of the Ala Trial Lawyers Assn who handles medical cases. If the surgery found a foreign object you may have a case, if it didn't I don't see a case but you should still get the consult.
Big problem you run into is the statute of limitations.

Not legally. Paper license is not the CDL. Fed regs, and your employer, would not allow.

You didn't ask but I assume you got on social security disability for at least the period after the crash through the year after your amputation. You might see if your lawyer can bring a crashworthiness case. However, with bankruptcy you don't have enough to go 'round so I doubt if... View More

It has only been two days so you may want to give the attorney a chance. If not, read through the contract to see what your contractual obligations are per the contract. If it has only been 2 days, there may not be much of a charge or cost in switching. Contact another attorney for a free... View More

Generally no, they are a contractor, unless the reason they get injured is because you didn't tell them about something--they put their ladder over an area you know to have a hole under it, the ladder goes in, tips, injury.
Can you still file civil suit Or sue a facility he was being held at ,like a work release facility?
answered on Feb 13, 2017
Chances are no for two reasons--the insurance company represented the parties that were doing wrong and also would have asked the administrator of the estate for a release before making any settlement payment. That release had a number of clauses. But I'm assuming you have a lawyer. Why not... View More

Notify your homeowners insurance. If you don't have homeowners then you'd want to consult an attorney, but I would suggest you start with a bankrupcy attorney not that you need to file now but you need to know your options. In the meantime I would avoid talking to anyone from the Fedex... View More

Unlikely, but why not contact an Alabama lawyer who has handled smoking related cases? Problem with a heart attack is that it happens often to people who never smoke at all. So proving it was tobacco and not other things in your body,your life, your lifestyle would be very problematic.

Usually not--look at your fee agreement. However if the "fees" are really lien payments, that's not a fee but a statute driven payment that has to be made. Review each item in person with the attorney.
