Ten Common Medical Errors that Everyone Should Know About

Ten Common Medical Errors that Everyone Should Know About

Here is a link to a blog by a nurse practitioner.

Hospitals are dangerous places to go. One reason is the complexity of today's medicine it is easy to make a mistake and mistakes can be deadly. Medical malpractice is a common cause of wrongful death and when you read the list of medical errors you will understand why.

Perhaps instead of screaming for tort reform, those hospitals should be trying to prevent those deadly medical errors that lead to them getting sued. Perhaps there need to be consumer protection laws enacted to penalize hospitals for their errors.

If you have been the victim of a medical error that harmed or killed a loved one, please give Attorney Wayne O'Bryan a call at 1-800-372-4099.

More Virginia Car and Truck Drivers with No Insurance

Last year Virginia DMV suspended the licenses of over 432,000 Virginia drivers for not being able to pay fees related to driving fines. Many of these people have not stopped driving, which means that more and more Virginia drivers are driving without any kind of insurance.

Many people are losing their jobs and are unable to pay the fines they get for traffic tickets. A lot of them are still driving to look for work or keep the jobs they have and thus there are more uninsured motorists on the road now. The problem is getting worse every day and is leading to an increase in hit-and-run accidents.

It is very important for you to make sure that you have enough uninsured motorist insurance because your chances of getting in a wreck with an uninsured motorist is increasing every day. Please read my library article about the importance of having plenty of uninsured motorist insurance.  One bad accident where you are hit by an unisured driver could lead to hundreds of thousands of dolars in medical bills and bancruptcy for you and your family.

Please protect yourself, the cost is minimal and the risks are increasing every day.

Why tort reform is a bad idea | Virginia Personal Injury Lawyer

<p><a href='http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-hiltzik1-2009oct01,0,7502095.column'>Tort reform is the healthcare debate's frivolous sideshow </a>.</p>               

A recent article in the LA Times shows the problem with tort reform and how the only people who really benefit from it are the insurance companies.

The insurance companies would love to avoid any sort of health care reform that might cut into their enormous profits and just focus the debate on tort reform.

I hear a lot about "frivolous lawsuits", but any lawyer would be a fool to knowingly take on a case he or she thinks is frivolous. The main reason being that most lawyers get paid on a contingency fee basis so that if the lawyer does not get a settlement for his client, then the lawyer does not get paid. That is the way we work, and most lawyers are the same.

Believe it or not, most lawyers are ethical and are trying to help people get money from insurance companies that do not want to pay a fair settlement to a person who has suffered real injuries.

Dangerous dog ordinance Richmond, VA | Virginia Dog Bite Lawyer

    Richmond does have a leash law and violation of it can be deemed to constitute negligence.

    There are two different ordinances in Richmond. One ordinance deals with dogs that are considered dangerous and/or vicious through a prior incident involving personal injury or property damage. A dog that has been deemed to be dangerous by a court petition has to wear a tag that identifies it as dangerous, keeping the animal in a secure place at home and making the dog wear a muzzle when the dog is away from home. If the owner does not follow the requirements them Animal Care and Control has the right to take the dog and the court may fine or penalize the dog owner.

    Richmond also has a leash law. Dogs are not allowed to roam free and Animal Care and Control has the right to pick up stray dogs and serve notice to the owners. Also dogs are required to be licensed and vaccinated.

    Richmond Animal Care and Control can be reached at 804-646-5573 on weekdays and 804-646-5123 on nights and weekends.
