According to The Telegraph, surgeons in the United Kingdom have pioneered a "two-in-one" procedure that takes the tissue collected from bags under the eyes and reinserts it into the cheeks, allowing cosmetic patients to undergo two separate procedures at once while recycling, in a sense, the tissue harvested from beneath the eyes. Dr. David Fett, a Los Angeles-based plastic surgeon who specializes in procedures regarding the eyelids, explains that this technique has been used in the United States for two decades. Regardless of which country created the procedure, ...

The circumstances behind a wrongful death based on medical malpractice range from misdiagnosis to medication errors. One related area of injury law is based on claims that defective drugs or medical devices caused a person's death, prolonged an illness or resulted in other harm.

In Graves v. CAS Medical Systems, parents who lost their six-month-old premature daughter ...

Virginia parents who have lost a child know it is a devastating experience. The pain often lasts a lifetime. The Virginia Senate recently approved a bill that allows parents to sue for the wrongful death of a fetus. The bill is part of several bills related to abortion rights that were also introduced during the current legislative session. The bill creates a cause of action for death of a fetus caused by a wrongful act or neglect. It creates the greatest expansion of a cause of action for wrongful death in Virginia since it was first recognized in 1871. Many other ...

Arizona law prohibits drivers from operating motor vehicles while under the influence of drugs and alcohol. The legislature has designated a number of criminal offenses based on the level of impairment, the driver's blood alcohol level, as well as whether an accident occurred (e.g. misdemeanor DUI, felony DUI, extreme DUI). If blood, urine or breath tests show a blood alcohol level of .08 or above, a driver is presumed to have committed a crime While a correlation can be drawn between BAC and impairment, this parallel does not necessarily exist when considering marijuana ...

The severe forces experienced in a car or truck accident or other violent event can lead to devastating injuries and tragic fatalities. Among the worst harm that accident victims can suffer are brain and spinal cord injuries that leave a person with a lifetime of medical and financial challenges. While the forces that harm head and back injury victims need not be severe to cause lasting harm, one of the most apparent and difficult outcomes of a serious accident injury is paralysis. A Florida group, the Miami Project to Cure Paralysis, recently announced FDA approval ...

Federal law enforcement officials have arrested a Texas doctor and charged him with health care fraud and conspiracy to commit health care fraud. A second doctor has also been named, but has yet to be apprehended and is presumed to be on the run from the law. The doctors are charged with defrauding the federal Medicare program that provides medical care to seniors and other individuals who meet certain conditions. The arrest was the result of an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Texas Attorney General's Medicaid Fraud Control Unit, the Office ...

A separate justice system for juveniles is not some sentimental Victorian notion that has no place in today's tough-minded criminal justice system. Cutting-edge research increasingly shows that the parts of the brain regulating risk taking and rational control are still not fully formed in teenagers. Holding juveniles to adult standards, then, is a very problematic policy. Fortunately, Connecticut has finally passed "Raise the Age" legislation to require young offenders under the age of 18 to have their cases heard in juvenile court and be segregated from adult ...

In August 2012, the New Jersey Supreme Court ruled that workers' compensation carriers that refuse to pay out on valid claims cannot be sued by injured workers to whom they owe money. In 1995, Wade Stancil was injured while working at Orient Originals, a carpet warehouse, and received workers' compensation benefits from compensation carrier ACE USA (ACE) for his injuries. After a 2006 trial, the compensation court found Stancil was completely disabled and in 2007, Stancil filed a motion to compel ACE to pay his outstanding medical bills. The compensation court ordered ...

Robert Khuzami, head of the SEC's enforcement division said that "[h]ad this whistleblower not helped to uncover the full ...

Divorce can be an intense and taxing process for the spouses involved and their families. Not only will a family be divided, but so too will all of their assets. While the emotion of the situation can overcome logic, there are a few things those getting divorced should focus on doing to ensure their emotions do not jeopardize their financial stake in the separation. The sometimes lengthy period between the time a divorce petition is filed and the divorce is finalized is the time when everyone should be on their best behavior. The opposing spouse is almost always watching ...

In August 2012, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration officially published detailed public notice of the standards by which it decides whether to allow a commercial trucker or bus company to operate, or whether to restrict or take away that permission. The FMCSA, part of the U.S. Department of Transportation, is the federal agency with the mission to prevent injury and death related to large commercial vehicle travel. This mission includes the establishment and enforcement of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, in large part to prevent dangerous semi-truck ...

Nearly all kids like riding bikes. However, a lot of them don't like wearing helmets. This is especially true for older children, many of whom see helmets as "nerdy" or "uncool." Parents, though, are right to consider wearing a bike helmet as a non-negotiable rule. There are few things that can protect a child in a bicycle accident as much as a helmet does. This common-sense principle was recently proven in a scientific test. According to a study published in the Journal of Neurosurgery: Pediatrics, bicycle helmets can reduce skull acceleration ...

After a workplace injury or fatality, many legal issues can arise, including eligibility for workers' compensation benefits and whether a contractor or other third party is also liable for a worker's injury. The key issue in the aftermath of a recent Missouri wrongful death case had nothing to do with issues of liability, but instead addressed whether an employee's death was covered under a business owner's insurance policy. The Missouri Supreme Court recently resolved this issue in Mendenhall v. Hartford Insurance by holding that business insurance coverage applied ...
