Why do surgical mistakes still occur in New York?

Steven E. North

Surgical mistakes in New York often are a function of something going awry during the course of the surgery. It may be the lack of skill of the doctor; usually that’s not the case. It’s just as any of us can have an accident, make a mistake, it happens. These things happen sometimes. And there are such gross mistakes where the surgery is performed in the wrong location. But for the most part, it’s a function of life that these mistakes happen. And when people are seriously injured by that, the New York courts are designed to address those injuries. I’m Steven North, I specialize in medical malpractice litigation. My office is located in a townhouse in the upper east side of Manhattan. We welcome your call.

What's the #1 mistake people make after a motorcycle accident?

Proner & Proner

The motorcyclist whose involved in an accident often makes the mistake of not realizing that there is a bias against him, or her. The motorcyclist thinks because I didn't do anything wrong to cause this accident, I should get fair compensation for the injuries I sustained. But the insurance adjuster says, well if there was a motorcycle involved, the motorcyclist must have done something to cause the accident and they offer less than fair compensation, resulting in an offer that's inadequate unless a skilled attorney gets involved. And that's the mistake the motorcyclist makes. I'm Mitchell Proner. If you are looking for an experienced skilled attorney to represent you or a loved one in New York, contact me today.

What is a big mistake made with motorcycle accident claims?

Thomas M. Kiley and Associates, LLP

The number one mistake that I see in victims of motorcycle accidents that try to handle it themselves is talking to the adjustor from the insurance company, believing the adjustor is their friend or is going to help them, giving them statements without the advice of counsel and many times making big mistakes that prevent them from getting a full recovery. The insurance adjustor is not your friend. He's trained to act like your friend. His objective is to pay you as little money as possible. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

What is anesthesia-related medical malpractice?

Shandell, Blitz, Blitz & Ashley, LLP

During surgical procedures anesthesia is usually required, frequently it's general anesthesia, sometimes it's just a local anesthetia, an epidural or something of that nature. If the surgical procedure is long anaesthesiologists frequently change during the course of the operation, by that I mean one comes in and takes over for another. The lack of continuity frequently results in mistakes of the anesthesia. Hi my name is Alfa Blitz of SHANDELL-BLITZ BLITZ & ASHLEY. We have represented people who have suffered at the hands of physicians and medical malpractice. Let us help you.

Which test hurts my DUI defense the most in California?

The Law Offices of Virginia L Landry, Inc.

The toughest test to beat in California is a blood test. However, here in Orange County, California, we win cases when the laboratory makes a mistake on the blood test. In Los Angeles County, we win cases where the police officers make mistakes. In each city, a police officer has an approved breath testing device, so if the machine is not calibrated correctly, if it's not used appropriately, whether it's a breath or a blood, we may be able to exclude those test results, and that makes the difference on your case in court. I'm Virginia Landry. For the last 19 years in Orange County, I've helped when bad things happen to good people. If you've been arrested for DUI, please call.

What's the #1 mistake people make after a car accident in NY?

Proner & Proner

The mistake the individual that's involved in a car accident makes if they've sustained injuries, is they believe that they will be treated fairly by the insurance carrier. You're not in their good hands, you're not their good neighbor. They're a big business that's trying to make as much as possible by collecting as much as possible in premiums and paying out as little as possible in claims. So, they don't offer you fair compensation unless a skilled attorney gets involved. And the mistakes that the individual that's involved in a car accident often makes is they think they will be treating fairly from the onset. I'm Mitchell Proner.
