Slate magazine has an excellent article concerning the difference in approaches to medical malpractice by the Republican and the Democratic parties. In a nutshell, the Republican approach is to cap jury awards and thereby reduce medical malpractice lawsuits. The Democratic approach is to reduce medical errors.
The article also quotes a number of recent studies that refute the myth of the frivolous medical malpractice lawsuit “crisis.”
I am a Dallas, Texas lawyer who has had the privilege of helping thousands of clients since 1971 in the areas of Personal Injury law and Social Security Disability.
The title of this blog reflects my attitude toward those government agencies and insurance companies that routinely mistreat injured or disabled people. As a Dallas, Texas lawyer, I've spent more than 45 years trying to help those poor folk, and I have been frustrated daily by the actions of the people on the other side of their claims. (Sorry if I offended you...)
