Sidney SchlachmanI started working as an attorney with Sidney Schlachman in June of 1972, a relationship that endured for the next 46 ½ years until his death on January 26, 2018. Sidney told me that an attorney's word is sacred and must never be compromised no matter what happens as a case proceeds to final resolution. In all of those 46 and ½ years, I asked him to do many things to assist me and our Firm in representing our clients and I can state with certainty that he never said no to any of my requests for assistance.
Causation often at the heart of medical malpractice cases
When Baltimore residents disagree about how something happened, it can be difficult to get to the truth of the matter. This is particularly true when it is a "he-said, she-said" situation, as there may be little other proof to determine what really happened.
How does an injured patient show the doctor made a mistake?
Every Baltimore resident makes mistakes from time to time, as nobody is perfect. Most times, these mistakes are relatively minor and easy to correct, so the person can simply learn from the mistake and try not to repeat it in the future. In other circumstances, however, a person's mistakes can result in serious harm to others, such as with a case of medical malpractice.

Every Baltimore resident, no matter who they are or what their circumstances may be in life, needs medical care from time to time. By the same token, every Baltimore resident may be susceptible to personal injury when they receive ineffective or improper medical care. In these circumstances, the injured patient may have a cause of action for medical malpractice, based on the negligence of the doctor or other medical professional.

Many Baltimore residents pride themselves on being responsible individuals. Responsibility is not only a matter of personal integrity, it is also a fundamental principle engrained in the legal system. Individuals and institutions can be held responsible for their own negligence, as well as the negligence of those acting under them or on their behalf.

When someone wrongfully takes something from Baltimore residents, most would expect that person has to give it back or otherwise repay the individual for what was taken. This principle lies at the essence of a personal injury lawsuit, as those whose negligence causes injury to others are held accountable for the injury and expected to pay the damages of the injured person.

Baltimore areas depend heavily on their job in order to earn an income and pay their bills. When individuals suffer a job loss or are unable to work for a period of time, it can pose serious consequences to not only the life of the person with the job, but his or her family as well. Accordingly, when a person suffers an injury that affects his or her career, the person may need relief from the person who caused the personal injury.

When Baltimore residents hit the road, they are often thinking of other things going on in their lives. Nonetheless, most individuals are usually careful to follow the rules of the road and watch out for other vehicles. However, not everyone follows these rules, which can, unfortunately, lead to serious injury for others who happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
