Legal Answers
2491 Questions Answered
Q. What are my next steps for an ER misdiagnosis of a knee fracture leading to surgery?
A: If multiple doctors missed it, I will estimate that it was hard to diagnose. Also, it is unclear what the impact of the misdiagnosis is. The impact appears to be caused by the fracture, rather than a misdiagnosis. Consult with a medical malpractice attorney for specific advise about your potential claims. Or, if someone else is at fault for causing the fracture, consult with a personal injury attorney about pursuing a claim against that person.
Q. Responsibilities after bicycle hit-and-run for 911 dispatcher and hospital?
A: You have no case against the dispatcher. The dispatcher also caused you no damage. If you, or anyone in your household, carries automobile insurance which includes uninsured motorist coverage, you can make a claim against that insurance policy. Talk to a personal injury attorney to discuss your potential claims. Also, any nearby business or homes with cameras may have recorded the collision and might be able to identify the license plate of the car that hit you. An attorney would hire an investigator to search for this potential video.
Q. How to verify legitimacy of email claiming to be from Federal Reserve Bank?
A: The Federal Reserve Bank doesn't collect money from taxpayers. That's the IRS. If you must, the contact info for the Federal Reserve for the western US is here:
