These cases are a lot trickier than they might seem.
These "pre-suit" opinions are very expensive and often difficult to obtain. Still, it is a critical step in the progression of these cases. Doctors never intend to cause someone harm but their negligence can cause life-altering changes to the patient, and cost thousands if not hundreds of thousands in unnecessary medical expenses. Costs can run well into the thousands of dollars even before suit is filed! These cases are highly technical medically and require a great deal of research and preparation. It's the cases that are "shocking" that usually go forward to a successful settlement or verdict. Beware that doctors and medical providers are getting better at protecting themselves from liability every day. You may have already signed a detailed informed consent form that could severely limit or eliminate the prospects of your claim from going forward. Even so, if you feel that the doctor or hospital's conduct was "outrageous" or "grossly negligent," it very well may have been, so where's the harm in finding out? Give us a call and we can discuss your case with you at no charge.
