Before the trial takes place, how much does the trial judge know about your particular personal injury case?
You might know that no attorney in New York can ever guarantee a particular result or outcome of your case. However, there are so many other types of guarantees that a lawyer can make. For instance, it would be wonderful if a lawyer in his marketing message guarantees that despite his firm’s two hundred years of combined experience, it will not make any difference, if the defense refuses to negotiate and forces them to go to trial. What does this even mean?
Pushing the buttons of a medical expert could serve the attorney well at a medical malpractice trial, but there are also chances that this strategy might misfire.
Is it appropriate for an attorney who is on trial, to try and “like” or “follow” the jurors on Facebook? Or even Twitter for that matter?
You are contemplating filing a lawsuit for an accident or medical malpractice case, and you want to know that if your case goes all the way to trial, can you sit with your attorney at the counsel table during the trial?
Everyone has had bad customer service before, but there are some instances where being rude to a client can be costly. New York residents might have heard of the medical procedure in Virginia that started with a colonoscopy and ended with a $500,000 payout for a patient.
Caught on Camera In many personal injury cases, the defense attorney will hire a private investigator to try to catch you on video, doing something you claimed that you could not do. If they are able to get you on video doing certain things and want to present that as evidence, they are then obligated to turn over a copy of that video to your lawyer prior to trial. How can such a defendant’s surveillance video help you in your case, when that video is designed to show the jury that you are able to do certain things that you claimed you could not do?
Should the Doctor Answer Questions that are Based on Assumed Facts
Can a person file a medical malpractice case against his or her doctor, if the doctor was unable to diagnose the cancer earlier, and the patient had to undergo chemotherapy because of this delay in the diagnosis?
