Q. surgeon cut me in wrong place to remove a pilonidal cyst. Do i have a medical malpractice case?
A: If a surgeon operated on the wrong area to remove a pilonidal cyst, you might have grounds for a medical malpractice case. Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare professional fails to provide the standard of care that a reasonably competent professional would in a similar situation, resulting in harm to the patient.

To determine if you have a case, consider the following factors:

Establishing Negligence: You would need to prove that the surgeon's actions fell below the accepted standard of care in the medical community. This often requires expert testimony from another medical professional.

Proving Damages: You must demonstrate that you suffered harm as a result of the surgeon's mistake, which could include physical injury, additional medical expenses, or emotional distress.

Timeliness: Be aware of the statute of limitations in your state, which limits the time you have to file a lawsuit.

Consulting with an attorney who specializes in medical malpractice, such as those at HHJ Trial Attorneys, could provide you with valuable insight into the specifics of your situation. They can help assess the viability of your case and guide you through the legal process to pursue any potential compensation you may be entitled to.

Q. should i persue a civil case against emt for failure to bring in right equip and incorrect cpr performed??
A: If you believe that an EMT's failure to bring the appropriate equipment and perform correct CPR contributed to a wrongful death, you may have grounds to pursue a civil case for negligence. In such cases, you would need to establish that the EMT had a duty to provide a certain standard of care, that they breached that duty by not bringing the right equipment or performing CPR correctly, and that this breach directly caused harm.

Before deciding to pursue a civil case, consider gathering all relevant evidence, such as medical records, witness statements, and any documentation regarding the incident. Consulting with an experienced attorney is essential, as they can evaluate the specifics of your situation, including the circumstances surrounding the EMT's actions.

Q. On March 31, my son hit the car in front of him, and the other party pressured him to pay via Zelle on the spot without
A: If your son was pressured into making a payment without a proper repair estimate and to a person who is not the vehicle owner, there’s a possibility that this could be considered a scam. It’s concerning that they demanded payment immediately and then requested more money afterward.

Since the bank cannot reverse the transaction without a court order, you may want to consider a few steps:

Document Everything: Keep records of all communications with the other party, including text messages, payment confirmations, and any details regarding the accident.

Report the Incident: File a report with your local police department regarding the incident. This could help establish that there was potential fraud involved.

Consult an Attorney: Reaching out to a car accident lawyer, like those at HHJ Trial Attorneys, may provide you with guidance on how to proceed. They can advise on whether you should pursue legal action against the individual demanding the payment and how to potentially recover your funds.

Consider Small Claims Court: If you believe you have a strong case, you might explore filing a claim in small claims court to recover the money your son paid.

Taking these steps can help you navigate the situation more effectively and determine your options for recovering the funds.
