Personal Injury Resources

Notes on a clever post on a great personal injury law blog.

While many people here aren't all that interested in personal injury law, Eric's blawg is terrific and he really does a great job, both in breaking new stories and in analyzing the state of affairs.

A physician's point of view on medical malpractice.

I’ve written before about medical malpractice and the rising costs for physicians of all specialties. One of the things we as physicians really fear is malpractice lawsuits by patients.

Bad weather on the east coast means more car accidents!

There have been many minor “10-32’s” (car accidents) all over town, and even the 14th Street viaduct has become very treacherous. Hopefully another deadly accident doesn’t happen before they can salt the roads.

A small Massachusetts book publisher is ordered to pay damages that are as high as some malpractice cases.

The Massachusetts case represents one of the largest awards in the state’s history (bracketed by record awards of $30 million in 1992 and $40 million in 2005 for medical malpractice resulting in massive brain injuries to newborns.) Unlike the OJ case and the medical cases, however, the lawsuit of the elderly women involved no death or physical harm; it was a contract dispute between two unknown co-authors and their tiny publisher.
