It varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and can vary from one situation from another. Simply put it is a false statement that hurts a person's reputation.

Auto ax, at fault paid, WC settled and now trying to settle underinsured motorist claim. I researched at it appears that ins just needs “reasonable” time to resolve. Do I need to request arbitration or allow “reasonable” time to pass and settle?

Emergency room ran no test ..another Dr.said i have fracture skull n bleeding on the brain...
You'd get the best input from a Tennessee attorney, but your question remains open for two weeks. From the description, it's difficult to tell exactly what happened.

You're asking this in the Personal Injury category, but it's an issue that more commonly arises in criminal law. From the standpoint of personal injury cases, which are ordinarily civil matters, one doesn't have the same constitutional issues that arise in a criminal case. A claimant in a motor... Read more »

Contact a personal injury attorney near you. If you are claiming to have been harmed, it is normal for the other side to want to see your medical records in order to assess whether to pay you and how much (or, more likely, little).
Last August I went to a city meeting. The parking lot was a mucky mess due to reconstruction. Leaving the meeting I walked across a grassy strip next to the parking lot to avoid the muck, stepped into an unmarked trench that lined a newly-installed parking curb, tripped and fell. The trench was... Read more »

A judge would nit care what an attorney wrote here.
Legal arguments require a lot more than an "I can do it" belief
she has been to several doctors they have sent the lawyer a demand letter/ and as of aug 24 2019 we advised we are ready to settle, but speaking to him today he said they have not responded to anything how long do we wait before I get impatient and isn't it a timely if we need to go to court
These are all things you need to discuss with your lawyer. You may have expressed your readiness to settle, but that doesn't necessarily mean the other side wishes to settle. If your lawyer sent a demand letter and has not received a meaningful response, there are a couple of things that might be... Read more »

Third, if you want a lawyer, then call one.
Do not expect lawyers to respond to your public announcement
He came complaining of dizziness and pain. Took to ER and said had a mild concussion? Spoke with school nurse who looked at him , she said he looked fine so she “just brushed it off”.
Is this considered negligence? What type of lawyer would handle a case like this?
You have a case against the parents of the other child and against the school board for personal injury. Get certified copies of the ER records and hire an education attorney.
