| "Value has been defined as the ability to command the price." United States Supreme Court Justice Louis Dembitz Brandeis St. Louis & Ohio RR v. US A Professional's Duties Earning a medical or legal degree has become an ideal in American society. Doctors and lawyers study for many years in school and in early career training to achieve an income and status level commensurate with their many years of work. Societal standards for doctors and lawyers are higher. Their training and income levels require a higher standard of performance. They are expected to know what they profess to know – the knowledge and expertise for which they charge patients and clients. When doctors or lawyers fail at their duties or fall beneath the standards set for them, the injured patient or client must seek redress. Medical or legal malpractice is a serious problem because the patient or client seeking assistance from a professional is entrusting their lives and livelihoods to them. Serious damages may result when such a professional fails in their service to their patients and clients. If you or a loved one is a victim of medical or legal malpractice, you must seek representation from an experienced lawyer to assist you in filing a lawsuit to seek compensation for any damages that result. The Law The cause of action is usually one based in negligence, and the statute of limitations is two years after the date of accident or injury. The medical board and state bar govern doctors' and lawyers' professional and ethical duties. In addition to a lawsuit, a lawyer will assist you in reporting the offending professionals to the appropriate governing body. Money Damages Financial recovery can include past, present and future medical or legal bills. Other potential areas of compensation, depending on the facts of the situation, are mental pain and suffering damages and punitive damages. Finding the right lawyer to protect your rights and address the wrong that has occurred in your life is a critical and important step. Your lawyer should take care of the rest. Why Pinkerton?
