Busted :: Police Catch Queens NY Car Accident Injury Ring Got into a car accident? You may have been a victim of this Queens Criminal Ring. New York NY Police, an insurance-fraud task force, and several insurance companies worked together to catch a sophisticated group of bogus car accident offenders. The criminal ring of sixty-one members drove cars throughout Queens, intentionally bumped their cars, loaded with people, into innocent drivers who were backing out of driveways. The criminals then claimed phony car accident personal injuries, and reported bogus treatment at a Bronx Park medical facility. The offenders took advantage of New York's No-Fault $50,000 Accident law. Even more appalling, the group specifically targeted Asian and immigrant drivers with limited English speaking abilities. If you get hurt in a car accident, contact an expert personal injury lawyer who can help. Read the full New York Times story here. Hat tip to Overlawyered for picking up the story.

Video :: Bogus Slip and Fall Injury

People sue stores, businesses, and property owners all the time claiming slip and fall injuries. Many of these personal injury claims are valid. Some are not. This clever store owner used video surveillance to catch the truth. Take a look at the woman walking down the aisle. At thirty-seven seconds into the video, she has minor slip and immediately recovers. No big deal. Strangely, she then takes a second walk down the same aisle, thirty-one seconds later. At 1:08 into the video, the woman demonstrates an exaggerated slip and fall, requesting help from the store owners due to her personal injury. The store's video clearly shows that the woman was: A) Aware of the slip location; B) Able to recover from it fine the first time; and C) Exercised poor judgment in slipping, or faking a slip, the second time around. Hopefully, this store owner can use this footage to defend him/herself from a blatantly bogus slip and fall injury claim. If you ever have a real claim, contact the personal injury lawyer experts.

Chasing The Good Doctors Out of State
[09.07.2008]
We first discussed this issue in our August 24th piece, New York Doctors Discuss Defensive vs. Ideal Medicine. There, we pointed out that physicians, fearful of medical malpractice lawsuits, may avoid implementing what could otherwise be the best courses of treatment for a given patient. After all, doctors wish to avoid suits, and so they wish to minimize their own risk exposure. Now, we are looking at another farther-reaching implication, of similar concerns. As PointofLaw contends, a given state's malpractice environment may prompt upcoming, talented physicians to avoid practicing in some states altogether. Simply put, young doctors would rather avoid practicing in states with high malpractice risk exposure. As such, legal concerns may be chasing the good doctors out of state. This is another facet of the legal web woven by personal injury and medical malpractice law.
