20. CRAIG W. CONROW, DDS, FACP, Prosthodontist, Palm Desert, CA provided an emergency exam of the bridge and Digital X-RAYS. He advised that PERRONE placed a bad bridge on exposed margins that are 'rough' with a 9mm gum pocket at the bridge - In other words, he was the first to honestly tell me the gold bridge was placed over erupted teeth and the roots were exposed, causing my pain all this time. He stated that I also had a periodontal problem that was too far advanced and referred me back to BERGMAN who previously refused to treat me unless I take blood pressure medication. CONROW refused to remove the 3-crown bridge, nor treat the teeth, nor to provide any written opinion and blamed me for going to a cheap dentist (PERRONE), in essence blaming the victim for bad dentistry based on cost. Apparently this high priced specialist didn't consider refusing treatment to be bad dentistry. Again, a dentist refused to get involved due to another dentist's malpractice, and, again, I left a dental office in tears, in pain, and untreated. So I disputed the bill and sought a dentist willing to remove the gold 3-crown bridge. (11-16-01, $170.00) $443,000 settlement awarded to the family of an 11-year old girl who suffered life-threatening infections after the hospital neglected to treat a compound fracture properly. After breaking her arm falling from the edge of an above-ground pool, the young woman grabbed her wrist and straightened the arm out herself. After arriving at the hospital, neither the doctor nor the orthopaedic surgeon considered the risk of infection posed by the compound fracture. The hospital staff failed to properly clean the area where the bone pierced the skin, and the subsequent infection required 12 surgeries over the next 3 years. The girl was left with functional impairment, pain, and scarring, but her quality of life was secured with the settlement we earned prior to the trial. Gemma Carson deals with claims against solicitors with a particular focus on negligence in personal injury and medical negligence cases where clients didn't receive the compensation they were entitled to because of lack of research into medical history, undersettling on claims, administrative errors and poorly researched information.

The Kentucky Supreme Court stated that comparative negligence created more fairness in the law. Comparative negligence takes into account the responsibility of all of those involved in an accident and determines how much a Defendant(s) must pay the Plaintiff(s). For example, suppose a jury found that a Defendant is 80 percent at fault, and the Plaintiff is 20 percent at fault. If the jury determines that the Plaintiff suffered $10,000 in damages, then the Plaintiff is awarded $8,000. Thanks for your quick response and extremely detailed explanation.

Client followed the doctor's recommendations and submitted to a stereotactic biopsy of his prostate.

Then if you can't get any of them to sign up for your loan because of bad credit or whatever then go to the I don't want to say loan sharks, but the loan brokers.

If you are looking at a $800,000 loan you are looking at $24,000 in loan fees that you don't have to pay going conventional. The reason why - well, why don't you recommend local banks number one. Well, I don't recommend them solely because they don't know the industry well enough. They are going to provide a good rate that you usually are at or maybe even slightly better than some of these dental lenders. There is going to be some strings attached or they just don't know the industry as well which causes me to have concerns as to how they value whether or not they should be making this loan.
