seeking lawyer

December 26, 2008

hi,I'm seeking a lawyer for a case of dental/root canal disabling me.

I'm about to do some root canal redo or extract it, and want to find

out what kinds of tests are needed for legal things before I do this.

Are tehre any lawyers that specializer in both medical and dental

things and maybe also chemistry?

thanks, amy

[MODERATOR: This is OFF-TOPIC, it is not treatment, see the

It is **UNLIKELY** that you will be successful in legal action unless it was

very badly done by the standards of Dentists. It may have been perfectly done

and made you disabled. For example, amagams if worked on could release mercury

which leads to a multitude of health issues --- however, not every patient will

suffer this response. A dentist that uses rubber dams, etc to minimize risk on

amagamss does not make one that does NOT do this liable --- failure to do BEST

CARE instead of REASONABLE CARE is not actionable (i.e. will be dismissied by a

judge).

The key is to be able to claim " improperly performed dental work " , with proper

being current standards. or more precisely:

'the plaintiff shall have the burden of proving by substantial evidence that the

health care provider failed to exercise such reasonable care, skill and

diligence as other similarly situated health care providers in the same general

line of practice, ordinarily have and exercise in a like case'

If a medical person acts " reasonably " by the standards of the day -- it is

unlikely that any lawsuit will win. They are assumed NOT to be all-knowing or

incapable of reasonable error.

This actually means that CFIDS-aware MDs are at legal risk if they prescribe

anything that a conventional MDs would not prescribe. ]
