You need to let your attorney know about anything that the other side might bring up, beforehand... View More

Go see a medical malpractice attorney about these problems.
the small claims suit was "dismissed without prejudice" and plaintiff referred to FL statute 377.106 - letter of intent to litigate, etc. with the onset of that procedure can
the plaintiff then sue for more than the small claims amount?

The problem is that the court system is confusing, a plaintiff can sue in any court that has proper jurisdiction. In order to advise you, an attorney needs to know the basic facts and circumstances about the suit. Go see one.

You have not given enough facts for any meaningful answer. The doctor has to breach his duties and do something that is unacceptable in order to be sued.

You have to go see a medical malpractice attorney about this. You have a limited time to sue, which I think is only two years.

Possibly. Medical malpractice cases are complicated. If you haven't already, you need to contact an attorney as soon as possible.

This may be malpractice though an attorney would have to get more information from you to determine if you have a lawsuit against the hospital, or perhaps even the vaccine manufacturer.

I have information about a major medical law. I know a lawsuit was filed. They are taking depos at work. I don not know patients name but do know important facts about the case. How can I find out who their lawyer is. Nothing cones uo on this site
answered on Mar 20, 2012
Without knowing the Plaintiff's or Defendant's names then it would be difficult to determine. If you knew the name of either party you could look up the case on your local county clerks web site and usually find the attorney information.
