How much does it cost to file a mesothelioma lawsuit?
What is so wonderful about mesothelioma claims in the United States is that clients have the keys to the courtroom, meaning they'll be charged nothing to see a lawyer, they will be charged nothing for the case to be investigated, they'll only pay on a mesothelioma lawsuit if they are successful. And if they are successful, they'll pay a percentage of the recovery. I'm attorney Jim Sokolove. If you've been injured, call us.

What if I die before my mesothelioma case is resolved?
If you die before your mesothelioma case is heard, then your estate will be the one who will benefit from the suit. It will take a longer period of time for a mesothelioma lawsuit to be processed if the claimant is deceased because the courts take them off a fast track and put the meso cases on a slower track, but your heirs at law will recover what you as a victim would have been entitled to recover.

Is there a statute of limitations on mesothelioma lawsuits?
The statute of limitations on asbestos claims vary from state to state. Some states have a claim as short as three years, other states have a statute on asbestos claims for as long as six years. But your claim is controlled by the state in which you live in or the state in which you were exposed to asbestos, thus you're better off not taking any chances and contacting a lawyer as soon as possible to stop the statute from running.

Why does medical malpractice occur?
A medical malpractice generally occurs simply because a mistake is made. No one is perfect; no one is expected to do everything always absolutely right. Things do happen. When something goes wrong, it is not necessarily medical malpractice. But if something went wrong and it’s because the doctor deviated from what normally takes place that is called malpractice.

How can I find out if I'm a victim of medical malpractice?
We get over fifty thousand phone calls a year from people about medical malpractice. And half the reason why they call us is they can’t get anyone else to talk to. The doctor won’t talk to them, the nurse won’t talk to them, and the hospital administrator won’t talk to them. What people are looking for is someone to talk to them. Why did this result take place? Patients do not want to bring medical malpractice claims, but they want to know the following things: Why did this result occur? How can I do something so what happened to my family member does not happen to someone else? I’m attorney Jim Sokolove. If you’ve been injured, call us.

What should I look for in a good medical malpractice attorney?
When one is looking for a medical malpractice attorney, they should look for an attorney whose had extensive experience in the field. How many cases have they tried? What has been their success rate? Do they have nurses on staff? Have they had extensive experience in their career? How many years have they been in practice? And what do others in the community think of them? I interview more than one law firm, and I find who I feel comfortable with. It shouldn't just be 'oh who can I go to? will they take my case?', it's 'who am I comfortable with as a consumer?'. As a consumer they should take the idea of hiring an attorney as something that they're empowered with, and they should choose who they feel is capable.

What is medical malpractice?
Medical malpractice is when a healthcare provider deviates from the standard of care in his community, and as a result of that deviation of standard of care, the patient is injured.

Birth injury cases are handled on a contingency fee, which means the client pays nothing unless they're successful. This is both for out-of-pocket expenses and any fees for the lawyer.

Why are birth injury awards so large?
Birth injury claims are very large because the injuries come about through a birth injury, are catastrophic and generally will involve millions of dollars for their childs medical care and simply cost of living to take care of their child through their childs life. It's not as if these awards are being made to punish the psychian. The awards are being made instead of the State picking up the tab to take care of this ward of the state who is totally disabled who cannot walk, cannot talk, cannot move. We're saying that the insurer for the health care provider who caused this is going to pay for it. I'm attorney Jim Sokolove. If you've been injured, call us.

What should I do if I think my loved one has been abused in a nursing home?
The question is, was a nursing home resident injured as a result of negligence by the nursing home operator. The first thing that one should do is report the incident to the state nursing home ombudsman. Then the next thing they should do is confer with the nursing home administrator and go over their complaints and what is going wrong, and then the next thing they should do is contact an attorney who concentrates in nursing home abuse cases so the matter can be investigated and obtain all of the records and most importantly, can we get witnesses, can we get other staff members to come forward to talk about what was staffing ratios, what happened, and get the true story as to what caused the injury to the elderly resident.

Why doesn't the FDA remove harmful drugs from the market?
On all these matters that we are talking about, whether we are talking about fen-phen or gadolinium or any of these pharmaceuticals that are having problems in the market, the difficulty is that the FDA has a tremendous amount of staff and goes through tremendous process to decide whether something should be allowed on the market. The difficulty is that once its on the market, the FDA does not have enough staff to monitor if there are events to see if these medications should be pulled off the market. The pharmaceuticals have such power with the FDA that the consumer does really not have a fair chance. Thus, the FDA is not a real watchdog we can rely on right now. I'm attorney Jim Sokolove.

What should I look for in a good product liability attorney?
If someone is injured and sustains catastrophic injury as a result of a defective product and they’re searching for an attorney to handle a product liability law suit, they should look for the same types of things that they should look for in any personal injury attorney. Which first of all, is experience in that particular field, and the law firm having the wherewithal – the funding and the finance – to take this case all the way through. Because it’s going to be very expensive for a law firm to take this case from discovery through trial. So you want to go to a firm that has had trial experience and has the capital and the experience to bring these cases forward. I’m attorney Jim Sokolove. If you’ve been injured, call us.

Is it hard to win a product liability case?
Product liability lawsuits are David and Goliath. It's the individual who's been injured versus, generally, the large manufacturer. And they are very, very difficult claims. And a lawyer is not gonna take on these claims unless, number one, the injury is catastrophic in a product liability claim, and two, he can get an expert to review the design to show that there was defectiveness and negligence in the manufacturing and design process.

Are there lawsuits against ATV manufacturers right now?
Yes, as a matter of fact there are a lot of lawsuits that are going on right now with the Yamaha Rhino All-Terrain vehicle. These All-Terrain vehicles have a susceptibility to roll over, and they have a susceptibility to cause catastrophic injuries to the drivers of using them. So product liability and Yamaha Rhino All-Terrain vehicles really should be said as one word all together. I'm attorney Jim Sokolove. If you've been injured, call us.

Are ATVs susceptible to product liability cases?
The key area for people to think about when we're talking about defective design and product liability is the all-terrain vehicles. The all-terrain vehicles are basically unstable. They tend to roll over, and have definite susceptibility to massive injuries. So you want to think of defective design, you can think of the Yamaha all-terrain vehicle as a good example of defective design causing catastrophic injury. I'm Attorney Jim Sokolove. If you've been injured, call us.
