Las Lomas, CA Personal Injury Law Firms & Lawyers

In order to prove a medical malpractice case, a claimant must prove a failure to conform to accepted practice, resulting in an injury. A bad result is not enough. You will need to get copies of ALL of your medical records and have another doctor review them; if he/she is willing to testify that your doctor failed to conform to accepted practice, then you have a case. But even then, you have to prove how much worse you are as a result of the malpractice. These cases are difficult and expensive to prove and they do not settle out of court. So unless you have catastrophic injuries, it does not make financial sense to go forward even if malpractice was committed.

The employees or subcontractors appear to be responsible because, as you tell it, they 'caused' the accident. In America the general rule is what's called 'responde at superior,' meaning, 'let the boss answer.' That is, the employer may be held liable for the acts of its employees (but only sometime for the negligence of subcontractors). Contact an experienced personal injury lawyer who can provide you with detailed advice and representation. Good Luck.

I am not aware of any law which prohibits you from videotaping traffic in front of you. However, I wouldn't be reporting police for speeding, since you would have to admit to speeding in order to state that you "clocked" the police speeding.
