Why is elder abuse becoming more common?

Elder abuse in California, and throughout the nation is a huge problem and its getting bigger everyday, it's getting bigger everyday because there are more elders. The companies who run elder facilities are for-profit facilities, and the way they can make more money, is by shorting the staff, so what happens is the amount of staff that is in nursing homes is usually much less then there should be, and much less than it takes to take care of the elderly people.

What are the signs of elder abuse and neglect?

The kinds of signs to look for of nursing home neglect would be bedsores, that's the number one. Or if your elderly parent is complaining about something that is going on in the nursing home, listen to them because many times what they are telling you is correct. There is a lot of abuse, there's a lot of sexual abuse, there's a lot of neglect, there's a lot of failure to take care of them. The nursing homes don't make more money by doing a better job of taking care of the elderly. I'm John Bisnar, the senior partner of the Bisnar/Chase Law Firm.

Can I get justice for my abused elder relative?

In nursing home abuse cases, normally the clients that we've represented aren't looking to get money as much as they are looking to punish the nursing home and making sure that their loved one and other people's loved ones are treated properly instead of neglectfully. It's not a situation where people come to me looking for, "How much money can I get from a lawsuit," they're really looking for retribution, or punishment, setting an example, so that this kind of thing doesn't continue to go on.

What is the cause of Cerebral Palsy?

Cerebral palsy is the result of lack of oxygen to the brain. When it happens in childbirth or in the neo-natal period, it's often a result of the fetal heart rate dropping significantly and thereby producing less oxygen in the blood getting to the brain. If that persists, then brain damage will occur. If the hospital doctors and nurses see that it's happening by examining the fetal monitoring strips, it requires immediate Cesarian section to protect that fetus.

What injuries can a dog bite cause?

In dog bite cases especially those involving children we see very jagged injuries that are dirty, tend to get infected. We've seen children's ears get bitten off, lips torn, noses bitten off, eye damage. It can be very devastating especially if it's a large dog, and these injuries many times require plastic surgery to repair and involve permanent disfigurement, so the value of the cases could go from the thousands of dollars to millions of dollars depending upon how much damage the dog does to the child. I'm attorney Tom Kiley, I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

Did Trasylol cause my kidney damage during my heart surgery?

If you or a family member had heart surgery and afterwards had unexpected kidney damage, one is not going to know what was given to them during the surgery. So, the first thing that one should do is get medical records or have an attorney get medical records to see if Trazalol was injected as a blood thinner and then the attorney can try to investigate to see if there is a causal connection between the use of Trazalol as a blood thinner and the resulting kidney damage.

Are accidents from auto defects common?

Many times in auto accidents either the cause of the accident or the enhanced injury occurs as the result of the defective or faulty design of the vehicle itself. Unfortunately, most of the time that people are involved in single car accidents they have no idea the vehicle cause contributed to it. Many of these cases are never pursued. They never end up in the hands of lawyers. The thing to look for is, in SUVs, high center of gravity , the ability of the vehicle to roll over easily, such as the 15 passenger vans, failure of seatbelts, roof fall in event the vehicle rolls over, defective air bag - the air bag deploys but doesn't deploy at the appropriate time, protecting their occupant.

Why do auto defects still happen in cars today?

The reason auto defects still happen is corporations that manufacture automobiles continuosly put profit over safety. Its been a constant theme for decades. Even with all the advancements that we see, the technological advancements with regard to manufacturing, manufacturers make profits on cars when they are using a 20 or 30 year old platform. Even though you have a new body on the car, and it looks like you have a new car, often times behind the skin of that vehicle you're driving a 30 year old car. Hi my name's Brian Chase.

Why does medical malpractice occur in NY hospitals?

Medical malpractice occurs for various reasons. One of the most common reasons is that people are treated in hospitals by physicians who are early in their training, and are actually learning while they are treating the patients and learning on the patients. Experienced doctors, attending physicians, physicians with years of practice frequently aren't present when the most injured, most seriously ill people arrive at hospitals. So, when you are treated by a novice, they frequently miss the problem that you are there for. This gives rise to many malpractice suits.

Are car accident lawsuits common in Massachusetts?

"Many people who haven't been in car accidents think that if that happened to them, they're just going to call their insurance agent and that their car is going to be fixed, their medical bills are going to be paid, they're going to be paid for their time out of work, and they're going to be paid for the pain and suffering of this horrible experience that they've had. That's not the case. Insurance companies, they're in business to make a profit. They make a profit by paying as little as possible on your claim. The adjusters are trained to do this. Even with an experienced attorney involved, they still resist paying full value on claims. That's why many times these cases require being taken to court to hold the insurance company accountable to ensure that they pay full value for what happened to you. I'm attorney Tom Kiley, I've been representing the seriously injured, and their families, in Massachusetts for over three decades."

Are loan modifications common in California?

Loan modifications are becoming more and more common in this economic arena that we're dealing with today. Six months ago or a year ago it was almost impossible to get a loan modification. The banks were not giving them. But now, as time goes on, and they have more and more of these non-performing loans and foreclosures are on the rise, the lenders are becoming more wiling to deal with us in terms of loan modifications. And now with the new law in California, the California Loan Modification Law, it does mandate that these lenders give loan modifications if they are going to be of a benefit to society. And the way the legislature has determined the benefit is to try and keep these homeowners in the home if at all possible, if they can make a reasonable payment. My name is Damion Nassiri.

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 that area? How many years have they been in practice? And what do others in the community think of them? I'd interview more than one law firm and I'd find who I feel comfortable with. It shouldn't just be, 'Oh, who can I go to and would they take my case?', its 'Who am I comfortable with as a consumer?' As a consumer, they should take the idea of hiring an attorney as something they're empowered with and they should choose who they feel is capable. I'm attorney Jim Sokolove.

Who should seek an order of protection in Arizona?

Undoubtedly in Arizona, a person who feels threatened by physical harm or genuinely harassed by either an ex-spouse or by an ex-boyfriend or girlfriend, should seek an order of protection. Because if that defendant or that person is harassing your or tries to contact you in any way outside of the scope of the order of protection, they can be arrested for interference of judicial proceedings and face up to six months in jail for contacting you. It is very important for a person who feels that their life, that their freedom, or that their happiness is in danger by another individual seek and obtain an order of protection.

How do I get an order of protection in Arizona?

In Arizona, the process for obtaining an order of protection is quite simple. The person needs to go to the courthouse, ask the appropriate clerk or staff about how to fill up the paperwork. They will then fill out the paperwork, go before a judge, and the judge will evaluate, expartate which means individually without another person present the merits of the allegations against the defendant. If the judge or the commissioner feels that the order of protection is appropriate, they will grant the order of protection. And by rule of thumb, they will grant the order of protection more often than they will deny it. My name is Mike Baker of The Baker Law Firm.

What happens when police come to your house on a domestic violence call in Arizona?

If a couple, or if a family, gets involved in a domestic violence dispute and the police are called, often times a chain of events occurs that is outside of the control of the individuals who called the police.

But once the police have come, once the police have investigated the issue, oftentimes someone will go to jail. And by going to jail, and being charged, there are very serious consequences that need to be discussed immediately upon that happening with the client. My name is Mike Baker of the Baker Law Firm.

Can kids be placed on orders of protection in Arizona?

The most common misperception of an order of protection is that children cannot be placed on an order of protection.

Therefore if a child is placed on an order of protection, it is imperative for that person to contact a lawyer, contact my office, so that we can assist you in getting that child off of an order or protection that often times is unfortunately used as a vindictive means by one parent to prevent access to other child.

What is the role of an attorney in a Domestic Violence case in Arizona?

In Arizona, handling a domestic violence matter is often tricky and fraught with various different persons who have interest in the proceeding.

The defendant might be prevented by terms of their release conditions from even going back to the home where a married couple had been for many, many years. Therefore the role of a defense attorney is two-fold. Its one to handle the actual criminal matter but on the other hand it to act in some sense as a counselor navigating through a process that is unfamiliar. My name is Mike Baker of the Baker Law Firm.

A clerk magistrates hearing, he's given in certain cases to determine whether or not that complain should issue. So, it actually happens before the arrangement and it is a chance to avoid the arrangement. It's to determine whether there is a probable cause to believe that the crime was committed, and committed by that defendant. I'm Sam Goldberg, the counsel for criminal defense matters, at Altman & Altman, in Cambridge, Massachusetts. I have 25 years of experience.

If I have been hurt by a dog, but not bitten, do I still have a case?

In the state of Massachusetts, dog owners and dog keepers are responsible for their dogs. There is case law in Massachusetts in that if you are not actually attacked or bitten by a dog, but you are injured because of a dog, you may still have a claim. For example, if a dog gets away from its owner or its keeper and it jumps on top of you or knocks you to the ground, and you suffer injuries because of that, you have a potential claim or potential cause of action for your injuries.

Those dogs are more likely to cause more significant harm to you because of the manner in which they attack and the manner in which they bite. There is going to be, most likely, more damage to you as a result of being bitten by one of those dogs. Therefore the compensation would likely be higher. My name is Robert Mazow.

Is anesthesia negligence common in New York?

There used to be many more losses involving anesthesia malpractice. It seems like there are fewer and fewer, and I’m happy to see and know that. There are still instances of failure to properly monitor during the course of the surgery. There are other instances where anesthesiologists venture into the realm of pain management. And they do procedures with regard to the spine, mylography and other such procedures that can cause nerve damage – serious nerve damage. And that’s another aspect of anesthesia malpractice that results in litigation. 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.

Can birth injuries be prevented?

Many birth injuries can be prevented. And it goes directly to the level of care that's provided by our physicians and our hospitals, Many times doctors, or people that are in charge of the pre-natal care, for a mother who's expecting a child don't do what they're supposed to do. They don't monitor the mother's blood sugar. They don't determine whether she's diabetic and going to have a large baby that won't fit through the birth canal. These are very important things that have to be done. If a baby's too large and can't fit through the birth canal and a cesarean section is not performed, it's a formula for disaster. And many times will end up with trauma to the child, it can cause death, cerebral palsy, brain damage. I'm attorney Tom Kiley. I've been representing the seriously injured and their families in Massachusetts for over three decades.

Are lawsuits from motorcycle accidents common in New York?

Motorcycle accident lawsuits are a rarity just because of the...most vehicles on the road are not motorcycles. But when a motorcyclist is injured in an accident, more often then not, to get fair compensation, they are going to have to file a lawsuit because the insurance carrier or the person that is paying out on the claim, they think that the motorcyclist, just by virtue of the fact that they're on a motorcycle, signifies that they are at fault. Even though the motorcyclist did nothing wrong to cause the injuries that they sustained which may be catastrophic. So to get a fair shake, the motorcyclist has to go to court to get fair compensation for the injuries they sustained. I'm Mitchell Proner.

What is considered a trip and fall injury in New York?

In a trip and fall accident in New York, in order to be compensated, it's not enough that you sustained injuries, you also have to show that the owner of the premises has some sort of fault for the injuries. That could be, by the nature of the defect that caused the fall. For example, a chipped stairway can cause somebody to fall and sustain injuries. Or it could be a loosed handrail that causes somebody to sustain injuries. If there is a defect that causes injury and the defect is not of a transient nature, which means it can't be somebody just dropped a coca cola right before you slipped, then you're entitled to be compensated for the injuries sustained by the fault of the land owner. I'm Mitchell Pronner. If you're looking for an experienced, skilled attorney to represent you or a loved one in New York, contact me today.

You know, the people who live in this little community in Riverside, which is a short distance from Los Angeles, were the people that are massively affected by a careless cement company, TXI, pouring chromium into the air.

Who pays the claim in a dog bite case?

If you've suffered injury because of a dog bite incident, it's important to find out the owner or the keeper of the dog and it is that person or persons that are responsible for your injuries. Oftentimes can be resolved with the homeowner's insurance company for the homeowner or the keeper of the dog. There may be rental coverage that would provide coverage for the owner or keeper of the dog. Ultimately, if there is no insurance coverage there, you do have a cause of action against the owner or keeper of the dog and it's gonna depend on what types of monies are available to them to compensate you for your injuries. My name is Kevin Mccullough with the law offices of Mazow & Mccullough.

What laws protect me from workplace harassment in New York?

There are no laws in New York that prevent an employee from being harassed in the state of New York. It's a common misunderstanding that many employees have, they believe that if their boss is being rude to them, is being hostile to them, is giving them more work than someone else, that that is legal. I often receive phone calls by people who believe that they have a cause of action for wrongful termination. There's no such thing as wrongful termination in New York, it's a broad term that is used to describe employment discrimination, but it does not protect someone who is just merely being harassed in the workplace. My name is Walker Harman, I'm the managing attorney of the Harman Firm. If you believe you've been the victim of illegal employment discrimination we are eager to speak with you. Please give us a call.

Is a rollover accident caused by an auto defect?

Things to look for if you're involved in a rollover accident in California are not just the fact that you were in a rollover. Look for things such as roof crash. In other words, did the roof on the vehicle push in. Oftentimes, that can cause fatal to catastrophic injury to a person's head or neck. So look at the roof. See if the roof is deformed down towards the dashboard. Also, if your loved one was ejected from the vehicle, people are going to assume they weren't wearing their seatbelt. If you know they were a habitual seatbelt user, then they probably did have their seatbelt on, and they've got a seatbelt that's defective, and unlatched during the crash. You need an experienced attorney to know what to look for in the vehicle to prove or disprove seatbelt usage. Hi, my name's Brian Chase. I'm a partner at Bisnar Chase in Newport Beach, California.
