Our success as mediators is due in large part to our decades of experience as litigators. Our lawyers understand how to evaluate claims and understand defenses.

Hospital error, including improper triage, surgical mistakes, and nurse error Whether you were visiting the dentist for a routine cavity, root canal or to have gum disease looked at, you probably expected your dentist to check for other dental problems as well.

Test28Settlement for child who developed a spinal cord injury caused by negligence of intra-operative spinal cord monitoring negligence during a spinal surgery. A teenage girl with severe scoliosis underwent a major spinal instrumentation procedure to straighten the curvature in her spine. During the operation, sophisticated intraoperative spinal cord monitoring was used. The purpose for such monitoring was to learn immediately if the spinal cord was being compromised so that the surgeons could assess and make whatever changes were needed. One of the important reasons for such monitoring is that the patient's blood pressure is kept low in order to minimize the blood in the operative field. If the monitor indicates any problem, the usual response is to increase the patient's blood pressure. During the operation in question, the monitor gave clear signals that the patient's spinal cord was losing function. The technician who was monitoring the spinal cord function and the neurologist who was monitoring the spinal cord function neglected to inform the surgeon. At the time the patient's spinal cord function began to change, the patient's blood pressure was very low. At the end of the procedure, it was discovered that the patient had sustained a spinal cord injury. Thereafter it was learned that the monitoring equipment showed the changes, and that the technician tried to destroy and falsify the data that proved the patient was losing spinal cord function. The patient's spinal cord injury was quite severe. However, she regained most of the spinal cord function in the following months. The release in the Bringier case is in the form of a consent judgment which was proffered to, and approved, by the trial court to dispose of the Bringier case. The judgment states that this case � is dismissed with prejudice as to all parties and claims. Since WHC was not a party to the litigation, the reference to dismissal of all claims as to all parties could not have referred to WHC. The order expressly releases only the District of Columbia and its officers, agents and employees �, including any claims for contribution or indemnity which any third party may have against the District. However, the order contains no provision for the Bringiers' release of any other individuals or entities against whom they might have claims. WHC is not mentioned, and the settlement does not purport to release or be for the benefit of the WHC. The language of the document is facially unambiguous; therefore, we need look no further to ascertain the parties' intent. Lamphier, supra, 524 A.2d at 732. There is no basis in the release to conclude that the Bringiers released any claim that they might have for medical malpractice against the hospital. Dental Law Firms West Columbia.

United States, 367 U.S. 421, 426, 81 1563, 1567, 62d 940 (1961). Although a no-contest plea cannot be used as an admission, it nevertheless forms the basis of a conviction that can be used to impeach, just as a conviction following a not-guilty plea and trial can be used to impeach credibility.
