My ob gyn said my baby was healthy when I was pregnant but I was sick so she prescribed me zofran. I was not informed of any major risks to myself or my baby by taking this drug. Thinking that I could trust my own doctor I thought it was safe. A short time after taking the prescribed drug, I... Read more »
I'm very sorry for your loss. As a starting point, you could contact a medical malpractice attorney in Michigan for an initial consultation. In terms of your question about having a case, that is something an attorney could make a more meaningful determination after learning more details from... Read more »
This was a gross oversight by the agency that resulted in a death which could have been prevented had they done there job
I'm sorry for this situation. A wrongful death attorney would handle such cases in general, but from the brief details here, it looks like you would want to speak with someone who has insight into the agency. A starting point could be to speak with attorneys on this site, the Internet, or... Read more »
She took the policy out years ago. We are currently going through divorce and our daughter has been diagnosed with cancer. My ex is now saying she will only pay her 33 percent of the deductible and i am held for the rest. And if i dont pay in full she will get a court order for them to take my... Read more »
Your issue is far more complex than what can be answered here. I could see a situation whereby the insurance payout is considered in the child support calculation. I could also see where an outcome would be similar to what your ex is saying.
You should speak with a family law attorney in... Read more »
They wont say why no pastor visit after he been going in once a week for 3 months? Can they do this?
This is, first and foremost, a jail issue. Has the jail provided any reason why your wife, specifically, is not receiving pastor visits? Has anyone tried to visit her? Some jails also distinguish between pre-trial and sentenced persons, with pre-trial detainees being limited to access to programs... Read more »
I ended up totaling my boyfriends new truck and going to the hospital. I was not in the right state of mind when the cops talked to me and might have jeopardized myself. I had also taken two cbd gummies which is why I was drowsy. 4 years ago I got charged with an owi so this will be my second... Read more »
You definitely need an attorney to help you with the situation. The information here does not indicate where this happened, which can affect how to approach the case, the cost for legal services, and who might be a good choice of attorneys. I think it would be better if you called me, or some... Read more »
Documents are being finalized, basically making sure everything is in place..
I think I just answered this question a moment ago, answer appearing a question or two below.

I have a complex personal injury suit that is 4 years in the making. It’s pretty complex. It’s seens as though, there has been delay after delay. In the past year it’s gained some traction, but still docket delays. We were scheduled for a post-ADR status conference in 3 weeks, it’s was... Read more »
Adjournments and other delays are part and parcel to civil litigation. This latest cancellation could be for any number of reasons and requested by one or several of the parties. Hopefully your lawyer can provide you with an explanation about what happened. Just know that it's not terribly... Read more »
Need to file superintending control I have all my documentation my investigative report against the attorney everything is done they said if all possible get help with citation with legal authority but I'm trying to get legal counsel as soon as possible if not I need to get this sent off they...

You may be conflating the grievance process with a legal malpractice claim; they are two distinct things with completely different possible outcomes. If you are asking the Supreme Court for superintending control, that implies that you've filed a grievance with the Attorney Grievance... Read more »
that coverage?
I don't practice in Michigan but your question remains open for 3 weeks. In general, a homeowner's policy should cover medical bills. There can be limitations, such as if a contractor was performing work, the carrier could issue a denial on the grounds that it would be a workers'... Read more »
I did file a small claims against her. She didn't have NO insurance and NO VALID DRIVER'S LICENSE. She appeared in COURT ONE time in this case. She informed the Judge she didn't work and that she wanted to "stay home" to raise her child. To date, she hasn't paid a... Read more »

And side of head i have epilepsy and he beat my face real bad i jave a ton of pics
Sorry to hear that. Hopefully you've called the police or filed a police report. That is your first step.
I did not check the bed as I would normally. The second night I put a pillow under my leg. The next morning I noticed the sheets were solid. I had slept under these for two days. I have to wait a couple of weeks to be tested for hepatitis. I am very upset. This is a major chain. They asked what... Read more »
You can, of course, sue, but I'm not sure what that will get you. You'd need to prove damages to substantiate a monetary value. Assuming the best-and most likely scenario: this was a housekeeping error, and whomever slept in the bed before you was an ordinary and clean person, I'm... Read more »
Possibly, BUT...allegations made in a police report are not false simply because the prosecutor elects not to issue criminal charges, criminal charges are dismissed or plead down, or the defendant prevails at trial.
Unless your ex was criminally charged with filing a false police report,... Read more »
Detectives and police are questioning them about drugs and abuse. There 2month old is in serious condition at Bronson hospital. They don't do any of that. They need legal advise. The doc says my niece has blood on her brain consistent with Blunt force trauma or a car crash and she's... Read more »
They need legal advice (with a "c"). A lawyer advises and provides advice.
Who are you going to call? You surely cannot call GHOSTBUSTERS.
Who do you call when you need legal services? Yes, you know. You contact a lawyer.
So you contact lawyers and seek to retain a lawyer

You were the victim of an intentional tort (assault and battery) and can pursue a civil lawsuit against him. The lawsuit can be filed as a small claims matter (where you represent yourself in court), however your recovery will be limited. You, or a lawyer retained to represent you, can file a... Read more »
Can I get in trouble
Anyone can call the police. I think you left out facts like possibly the dog was snarling and acting in a way that seemed like it would attack.
Does "is of leash" mean "is off leash"?
If so many laws exist that dogs are required to be on a leash
Im trying to see where my loss wage claims are, adjuster wont speak to me, lawyer wont answer phone, neither his assistant,
I was wondering, what can I do, without my lawyer's interference since he never answers me, to push my insurance company to send my wage loss without filing a... Read more »
The insurance won't talk to you. Suggest you write and ask for an appointment, explain you call and dont' get anyone (double check to make sure you are using the right number).
Make the appointment in person. You can then see your file and if it's getting work on it.... Read more »
unknown injury- blow to abdomen and ribs
Told mother and landlord the true story; also girlfriend. It's been three days. I just didn't want to jeopardize my new job because they've been known to fire after injuries.
You made things tough for yoruself. Contact a member of the Michigan Assn for Justice that handles comp claims--they give free consults.
Per doc instructions, I am to be off work for no less than 25 days and I am self employed. I have pip ins coverage. Do I need an attorney to help or should I rely on my own insurance company to take care of me
If you are a swimmer do you ask the shark for directions? You talk to a member of the Michigan Justice Assn for the county where it happened--they give free consults.
Is criminal charges possible
If there was a police presence and a police report filed, the more likely there will be charges. Charges are ultimately decided by the prosecutor's office. I would need a bit more information to provide you with a more accurate answer.
