Time and resources can be wasted, and lives permanently damaged, if the wrong medical assessment is made. Below is one good illustration of the impact we can have in these types of cases.
The Case:
Tom, a young athletic bike rider went to see his doctor when he was experiencing back pain. The doctor diagnosed it as a strain.
Unfortunately, he later learned that it was an infection, which ultimately caused paralysis and left him unable to walk. Tom is
now confined to a wheel chair.
The Results:
Pulley Watson filed suit against the medical practice on his behalf. The settlement that was reached enabled Tom to purchase a
specialized van and renovate his home to accommodate his handicap. He also received enough compensation to cover the income he
would have earned over the course of his life, and help support his family as he would have otherwise.
