site applies to Florida only)
Do not hesitate to talk to more than one lawyer about taking your case. Maybe the third lawyer you talk to will have had good success with a case just like yours, while the first two had bad experiences with a similar case. But what if you have done that and still, no attorney will take your case? It means the consensus is either that your case probably cannot be won, or that the likely damages that can be recovered will not justify bringing the case.
It is our recommendation that you not try to pursue the case without a lawyer. There may be much more at stake for you financially than you realize. If you are convinced that you received inappropriate care but cannot find a lawyer, you are encouraged to file a complaint with the appropriate medical regulatory board or agency. Any of the malpractice lawyers who turned your case down should be able to tell you what agency to contact for your area. While filing a grievance with an administrative agency will not ordinarily result in compensation for you, it may in fact help prevent the incident from happening to other patients in the future.
In Florida you can get information on filing an administrative complaint against a doctor at the Agency for Health Care Administration web site.

While our firm started in Orlando and its main office is there, for many years we have handled cases throughout Florida, and even out of state. To serve you better we have opened additional satellite offices in several major Florida cities. We use these offices to conduct client interviews, take depositions, and as war rooms when we have trials in these cities. When advantageous to you, we will also associate with other lawyers and law firms in some areas of the state to serve you better. If we do associate with other lawyers on your case it will be at no additional attorney fee or expense to you. This site contains only general background information and is not intended to constitute specific legal advice or establish an attorney/client relationship. Laws vary from state to state and are constantly changing. If you think you may have a case you should promptly contact a lawyer in your state with experience in handling this type of case. |
