Woman and Family Receive $3.7 Million for Delayed Cancer Diagnosis
2013-04-06
When it comes to cancer, early detection is key. Prompt diagnosis and treatment can mean the difference between a curable cancer and a fatal one.

The woman went to a colon and rectal surgeon for treatment of a rectovaginal lesion in 2007. She was referred to another doctor for additional treatment. In both cases, the medical providers told the woman she had a benign cyst. They ...

Negligent acts that should never occur in a hospital
2013-04-06
Many of us have a family doctor, or a group of health care professionals that we rely upon when we are having health issues.

2013-04-06
During the process of divorce, many families need to decide what to do with the marital home. If the house can be sold, the mortgage paid off, and any remaining proceeds divided between the parties, not necessarily equally, that may be the best solution.
Frequently, one member of the couple wishes to stay in the house and continue to pay the mortgage after the divorce. The problem is that if both members of the couple have signed the note and mortgage, they are both liable. The spouse who does not stay in the house will have an exceedingly difficult time obtaining a ...
