What Makes A Case

Recognizing Potential Medical Malpractice
These cases focus on substandard medical care to patients.

  • Probability increases when the client or the client's family complains about medical care.
  • Complaints may take the form of the existence of unanswered questions, results that went wrong, or indications that important information was withheld.
  • Patient diagnosis in a timely manner is an important consideration.
  • Medical disclosures should be reviewed.
  • Pre-operative test and surgical techniques should be questioned.
  • Post-operative symptoms should be reviewed for appropriateness.

Recognizing Potential Auto Product Liability
These cases focus on the failure of a vehicle to protect occupants in a crash.

  • Liability becomes an issue when vehicular performance seems to be unusual or when a vehicle system fails.
  • Typical failures include structural, air bag, seat belt, and/or windshield failure.
  • Injuries occurring inside the vehicle by the occupants on impact should be questioned.
  • A fire may suggest malfunction and, thus, liability.
