Why won't a attorney take on my girlfriends case because her problem is with a hospital?

Your question is lacking. If you have retained a lawyer its possible that he feels its not "winable" or not enough in it for him. When in the hospital your girlfriend probably signed a release. This release protects the hospital from any suit you my bring. Unless you can PROVE Malpractice/Negligence on the hospital, it will not even get to court. Sorry, it happens everyday.

Your case is probably one in which you should not have a problem finding an attorney to take your case on contingency. If that attorney merely advised you to write a letter to the food service establishment yourself, it does not sound like he was interested in taking your case.\n\nI suggest you retain an attorney who will take your case on contingency and have your attorney write a "demand letter" to the food service establishment. The food service place will probably submit your demand to their insurance carrier or corporate attorney for handling.  From there, the respective representatives for both sides will evaluate your injuries and the cost of making you "whole" again.\n\nA case such as yours will probably settle, however, I suggest you retain a competent attorney to help you negotiate your damages.  It might be a lengthy process, but at least you have someone on your side advocating for you.  Hope this helps.

I don't know what state you're in, but the hospital that treated your sister for self-inflicted injuries should be de-licensed for blatant incompetence.  Hospitals are required to report any injury that implies a crime (like bullet wounds) or self destructive behavior.  But to answer your question, a psychiatrist would know what options are available in your particular state.  In my state, you could go to the Probate Court, and with sufficient evidence get an incarceration order.  There would be a hearing within 5 days where your sister would be given the chance to show why she should not be subject to involuntary treatment, and for this you would need a lawyer.  But again, a psychiatrist or even a regular M.D. will be able to tell you what to do.  You should not have to handle this alone.  Hope this helps, and good luck!

Find another lawyer, that does NOT know this lawyer, and explain everything.  See if you can re-open your daughter's case, since she can no longer play sports because of this accident, and go from there.  Understand that MOST lawyers know each other, and bond together when someone wants to report another!  Unfortunately, this is the way they work, and not much we can do about it.  If you've got everything documented, including collection letters and proof that the medical bills were supposed to be paid out of the settlement then you've got the ammunition you need to do this.  And if you signed anything accepting this settlement, you can state that  you signed it under the direction of your lawyer, and trusted him completely, and he didn't represent you to the best of his ability.  You might also want to report him to the Bar Association.

Yes, but this is an up hill battle. The laws are not really in your favor. \n\nHave your attorney file a "stay judgment order" which should give you time to mount an appeal. There are nonprofit organizations out there to help you, do some searching for pro bono housing council.

You need to talk to an attorney.

Um...maybe you didn't really "prove your case."  Also, the city was not obligated to make sure you had an attorney to represent you.  Courts aren't perfect, but c'mon.

Just the fact that she wasn't honest about who the father actually is can help prove that she's unfit.  Tell him to contact an attorney right away and see about getting custody.

You might try contacting another lawyer but it may be hard to show that anything is being done wrong. You might try just showing up at his lawyers office and confront him. Ask why he isn't helping your family. I don't think he is suppose to be made to take meds that he doesn't want to, especially if they knock him out. \n\nAs for the question someone already asked, it doesn't really matter what he did. That may be the problem. If he is in for something we wouldn't want to know about, that may be why he is being treated so badly. That doesn't really matter either though. As a US citizen, he has some rights, even in jail.\n\nI do have a friend who works in the Jail here in KY. If you want to contact me, I might be able to get some info from you and call him. He might could tell you what you should do. He is a really fair man.I think it is set up where you can leave me an IM or email me, either on.

Sorry to hear about this situation. There are many cases like this out there and I hope that you friend get the help that she is in need of. The reason that she is facing charges by the state is because husband(bastard) filed charges first and he made it seems like self defense against her. Check in your area for a legal aide lawyer or counsel for help not only for the case but for help for her. Tell your friend to keep praying, God is going to turn it around.

Having been told yes and then for that to be taken away from her is awful, she must be feeling very low about this and herself. And as a mother you must be worried out of your mind you see your daughter so unhappy. There may be another way or two. One to appeal against the hospital, write to the directors and explain they said yes and then no, also what this meant has  done to your daughter since. Also you are allowed to request with your doctor to be placed under another hospital infact since being part of the EU your allowed to even go aboard to have this done but i would stick to England better chance of a yes. But yes indeed go back to her doctor and make the request i doubt he will say no for another hospital. Good luck and i wish your daughter well.

I can only suggest seeing a lawyer if they do not want to let you out of the lease.  Have you given your landlord some type of documentation from your doctor stating the problem?  Depending on the time left on your lease, if it's not to long, you may be able to work out a deal with the landlord.  Good Luck KG

THe owners of the park should be responsible for all medical costs incurred. If you want anything beyond that (which I think you're entitled to- imagining the emotional damage to your daughter now and repercussively in several years from now), you'll need an attorney, but most will offer first consultations for free, to determine if you have a case or not. Some will work on a contigency basis which means you don't pay them until your case is settled.
