What would you do if your son died from mistakes made at hospital?

My son died in June, 2005, from mistakes made at a local hospital! I live in Alabama and have been turned down 8 times by top lawyers when I tried to file a Malpractice suit! HELP!!!!

Perhaps you can tune us in as to what mistakes the hospital performed. Was it the physicians, the nurses, the structure of the building? You see, some lawyers are offered plenty of money to keep their mouths shut. My father tried suing a company who almost caused his death. All I can say is money that slid under the table did not cause the court to rule in his favor. His lawyer wasnt the best guy out there either.

My advise to you is hold on to that determination. Go to court, if you feel your case needs to be heard again appeal. If it closes wait a while and then re-open it. Whatever you do though, DO NOT GIVE IN, DO NOT GIVE UP.

I hope you resolve this matter successfully.

I am so sorry to hear that your son has passed away. If you have been turned down by lawyers that many times they probably do not think you have case against them. There is lawyer in the Michigan that does exactly this type of thing.

here is the website http://www.callsam.com/call_sam/contact_...

The only thing is this lawyer may not be able to practice law in your state. But they maybe able to direct you to a lawyer who would be willing to take the case on.

Good luck

God Bless

Do you have/had all the evidence and all the witnesses, if you do then keep trying. Wishing you all the best.

Pray and keep trying...there is an attourney out there who will take on your situation. Never quit...I send my condolences.

Find another lawyer who is willing to help you let your son rest in peace. My family is in the middle of a malpractice suit...My grandma was killed during surgery. It can be painful, but you can't let it get to you. If you give up now, you might regret it later. You can never stop loving him or grieving for him, but remember, he's always with you. If you ever have any questions email me, I'll try to reply as soon as possible. I wish I could do more. My condolences on your loss. ldbush5283@sbcglobal.net

You need to find another lawyer, and don't give up the fight. My condolences on your loss.

I agree with Wendy. Forgive and let go. Doing it for the money is wrong, it won't bring your son back and fighting the battle will only serve to make you bitter. God says it is for us to forgive all people. I know from experience that is not always easy to do but it is the best thing to do. If you need to talk about it, e-mail me.

it will very hard to prove it was a mistake made, and that it was not from complications, you will spend a fortune on lawyers, or else they do not think you have a case. A lot of times, the family feels that way at first, because they cannot accept that their family member did not make it, but medical personell are human, and most do all they can, but it not always enough. God has a hand in it also.
If you have a clear cut case of negligence, and it does happen, then just keep looking for a lawyer that will take it, there will be one eventually who will take it to prove themselves if they think there is a case

maybe you should call some law advice hot lines and hear what they have to say then use that info to get a lawyer

Forgive and let it go. The bitterness will destroy you please forgive for your own sake

Sue the authorities..he was ur son

alot of lawyers might not like taking on cases like that i dont know keep looking in the phone book there has to be one who will do it

I agree with Psychology, you cannot give up, Im sure you'll find someone willing to take your case

Not being smart, but what makes you say that it was the fault of the hospital?

Continue searching for attorneys that specialize in malpractice lawsuits. Just because the lawyers you met with are considered "top lawyers" doesn't necessarily mean they are better. You may have better luck with an attorney that isn't as well known.
