You should immediately talk to a personal injury attorney who also handles medical malpractice. There are very strict timelines that you must not violate so you should talk to someone right away or you could lose the chance to do something.
I review medical records, create chronologies and perform merit reviews with a strong clinical eye to help strengthen your case.
Please contact me!

You should reach out to some attorneys who specialize in medical malpractice. They should be able to help you determine what options you have. Do this right away because you only have a limited time to take action.
My dog then with her leg dangling from her body and her chest split open came home! I rushed her to have her put down! The guy who shot her never contacted me and still hasn’t contacted me! But said he did! What can I do? I am so sad my poor dog went through this!

If you get another similarly athletic dog, get a taller fence. Once your dog jumps your fence and is unsupervised, it is a menace to pedestrians, neighbors, children and other dogs who are lawfully on their own property, or using the sidewalks. You can and will be sued for any harm it causes, and... View More

Sorry about the death of your brother. If your mother was represented by an attorney in the prior case, the attorney should have seen to everything about the case. A lot depends on the "dismissal" whether this was ordered by the Court (not much chance to revive) , or voluntarily done by... View More

Why would you want an attorney to continue to work for you or your mother despite that attorney clearly wishing to resign? How zealous do you think that attorney will be for your cause if you are forcing him to perform against his will? Slavery comes to mind.

I'm very sorry for the loss of your mother. This is something that a California attorney could advise best on, but you await a response for four weeks. At this point, you could reach out to attorneys who handle such cases - if a law firm felt that that your family could have the basis for a... View More

Yes. It begins with expert opinions that the "standard of care" was violated, and that that violation legally "caused" the death.
My brother was shot and the response time of the ambulance was 45 minutes later resulting in his death.
answered on Dec 16, 2020
That seems like an unreasonably long time. Whether it's "too long" for purposes of filing a lawsuit depends on why it took that long. Find out.
The nurse said the found him with no pulse and not breathing, they did not know how long he had been like that and that they were able to shock him back to life but fractured both sides of his ribs and chest and also he has no signs of any brain activity

I am sorry for your family's loss. You haven't asked a question but I assume you are interested in inquiring about whether the doctor/hospital had a role in his passing. That will require an autopsy, and a review of all of his hospital records as well as medical records from any health... View More
