Was it malpractice or negligence? How?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Richard B. Jacobson Associates, LLC
Well you do have that option. However you would not likely get far with it for several reasons. You had to know that you a party to his crime. That could lead to lots of trouble for you including dismissal of your Complaint. And even if you could win a judgment, you probably could not collect anything worth counting from this unemployed criminal. I suggest you devote your energies to getting and staying clean, and keep away from this guy and everyone like him. Good Luck.

Can I sue a nightclub and what are my chances of success?

B. Casey Yim
Answered by attorney B. Casey Yim (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Murchison & Cumming, LLP
You need to provide more information. Did the security guard say anything to you before the assault? Did he accuse you of doing something disruptive on the premises? Did he say you were being "evicted"? Did he say why he was doing what he did? Did the police show up? Were you arrested? Did you file any charges of assault against the security guard and his accomplices? Why not? Injuries: did you go to hospital; seek medical attention? What were your injuries? How much are med bills? Video: you can ask the restaurant owner to obtain a copy of the video. But they don't have any obligation to give it to you. If criminal charges were filed (either against you or the restaurant), the police can obtain a copy of video by subpoena. You can also ask Restaurant owner or manager for a copy of their "incident" report, but again, without a lawsuit, or subpoena, they have no obligation to provide it to you. If you file a civil lawsuit you can get a copy of the video and incident report by subpoena. Problem w/ your case is that, w/out the video, this will be a case of "he said, she said"; your word against theirs. (You can probably assume that the restaurant will "deep six" the video unless it is helpful to them). They will also take the position that even though you were lawfully on the premises as a business invitee, they have the right to "evict" you at any time, for any reason. Then unless you have serious permanent injuries, and supporting medical bills, or lost wages, your damages are minimal. Thus, although you may have a technically viable case for assault, or negligence by the security guard, without significant damages, it will be difficult to find an attorney to take your case at that level.

What can be done if a car drove into the waffle house and hit my family and I while we were eating and the driver got away?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Marc Lazarus (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Russell & Lazarus
If the vehicle's license plate was observed by a you or witness, then you can obtain information from the DMV regarding the vehicle owner and potential insurance coverage. If the hit and run vehicle is unidentified, then your own automobile uninsured motorist insurance will provide coverage for the injuries. Also, if the hit and run vehicle is unidentified, then you and your family may also be able to receive some limited benefits under the victims of violent crimes program. You should call an attorney to discuss further.
