McDavid, FL Personal Injury Law Firms & Lawyers

If there is a lawsuit pending then your attorney must get a judge to sign a withdraw order allowing your attorney to cease representing you. If no lawsuit is pending, then your attorney does not need a judge to approve of his withdraw.

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, and if it is a "judgment call" by the doctor, there is no malpractice, even if the doctor made the wrong call. So, you have to prove what it was that the doctor did wrong, and that his failure was a departure from accepted medical practice, and that his failure caused you some damage, e.g., made your injury worse. Rotator cuff repair is a tricky business. It is a complex joint and sometimes the doctor can't tell exactly what's wrong until he gets in there. You may have a case, but you will have to get all of your medical records, take them to a lawyer who is experienced in medical malpractice, and that lawyer will have to have the records reviewed by an orthopedic surgeon in order to determine whether you have a case.
