Will expenses be paid by client even if case is lost?

Old rules of ethics in some states, require lawyers to recite in the contract that costs be borne by the client. This was one of the ways contingent fees were first allowed. In reality, no firm expects to collect these cost if the case is lost, but you should ask your attorney to change the language unless your state bar requires this language in order to allow you to hire on a contingency basis.

My husband's doctor misdiagnosed him, do I have a case to sue him?

Answered by attorney Andrew Tyler Velonis (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Andrew T. Velonis, P.C.
In order to prove a medical malpractice case, a claimant must prove a failure to conform to accepted practice, resulting in an injury. A bad result is not enough, and if it is a "judgment call" by the doctor, there is no malpractice, even if the doctor made the wrong call. Your husband will need to get copies of ALL of his medical records and have a doctor review them; if the reviewing doctor is willing to testify that your husband's previous doctor failed to conform to accepted practice, then he has a case. From what you've said, this is something to look into: misdiagnosed cancer and a doctor saying he can't believe that the first doctor wouldn't it. But, this new doctor will never admit he said that, so you will have to hire an outside expert. Also, there will have to be proof that earlier diagnosis would have had a substantially greater result. Finally, it is your husband who has the primary case, yours is "derrivative" to his for loss of society and companionship, loss of value of household services and loss of consortium.

Do we have recourse if my husband had a foot personal injury?

Personal Injury lawyer at West Law Office
The store probably has premise liability insurance which should pay for medical costs regardless of fault. It is hard to know if they will pay any additional pain and suffering unless they accept liability and don't say it was your husband pulling lumber out that caused the lumber to fall. If you are only trying to get medical costs paid which they will probably pay you could probably handle yourself. If trying for more than this I would recommend hiring an attorney.
