| Scranton Serious Injury Attorney |
| Posted By Patrick M. Rogan |
|
| Listening to NPR, I recently heard a story discussing emerging evidence that the massive, catastrophic oil spill that continues to contaminate the Gulf of Mexico was caused by as series of human and equipment failures that could have been prevented by better regulatory oversight.
What a shame that the only way we can rely upon many people and corporations to do the right thing is to watch their every move. How much better the world would be if we all thought, seriously and responsibly, about the impacts of our own actions.
People make decisions all the time that have devastating, catastrophic consequences for others. Virtually any accident may result in serious, life-changing injuries such as brain injuries, burn injuries, amputation, blindness, spine injuries or paralysis.
If you or a loved one has been treated for serious injuries in an accident caused by someone else's negligent behavior, then a Scranton serious injury attorney from Rogan Law can help you. A Scranton serious injury lawyer from Rogan Law is both qualified and passionate about helping you in your time of need.

| CMC Accused of Wrongful Death, Failure to Diagnose |
| Posted By Patrick M. Rogan |
|
| The Times-Tribune reports that Community Medical Center (CMC) in Scranton and one of its emergency room doctors are facing accusations of wrongful death for failing to diagnose the life-threatening symptoms of a man who sought treatment at the hospital but was released rather than hospitalized for his injuries. Hours after his release, he died in a car accident after losing control of his vehicle.
Cases like this are tragic. Whether the courts will hold these particular defendants responsible depends on many factors. One thing is for sure, the quality of the legal representation each side chooses will significantly impact the outcome. A good Scranton personal injury lawyer can make all the difference in a Scranton wrongful death case.
Medical malpractice, failure to diagnose and wrongful death are heartbreaking realities in the healing profession. Losing a loved one at any time and for any reason is hard enough to bear, but losing a loved one and knowing that it could have been prevented adds to the pain and difficulty.

| Medical Injury Lawyer, Scranton |
| Posted By Patrick M. Rogan |

| As a medical injury lawyer in Scranton, I pay close attention to healthcare law.
A little more than an hour ago, the Senate approved historic healthcare legislation that the House of Representatives will confirm in a final vote this evening. The journey to this moment has been long and complex - msnbc has an excellent explanatory timeline if you'd like to look back at how events unfolded.
However, as this day draws to a close, I am looking ahead.
So much misinformation has circulated this past year that many people have little idea, or even an absolutely incorrect idea, of what the legislation will mean for them. I hope that most Americans will be relieved when they finally begin to experience an actual impact on their lives.
Though two of health care reform's main goals are fighting insurance company abuses and significantly reducing federal deficits, detractors continue to argue that reform will hurt our health care system and will create mountains of debt. I am interested to see both whether the reforms will achieve their stated goals and whether such achievements will have any impact at all on those who continue to vehemently reject them.
Other opponents reject the stipulation that everyone must buy into the system or must face financial penalties - penalties that will offset the high costs of emergency room visits, a common first line of defense in the health care of the uninsured. In effect, all Americans must now take some responsibility for their own care. They must support the system or they must help cover the potential costs of their not doing so. I am hoping this will prove to be a fair and effective way to manage the challenge of making sure Americans who do want insurance - most Americans - can get it.
I guess we will have to wait and see.
In the meantime, if you need a medical injury lawyer in or near Scranton to help you navigate the health care system, then contact Rogan Law. We will provide you with a Scranton medical injury lawyer who can answer your questions and provide you with sound legal advice.

| Milford, Pennsylvania Injury Attorney |
| Posted By Patrick M. Rogan |
|
| The town of Milford in Pike County, PA is a lovely place nestled near the Delaware River where PA, NY and NJ meet.
Because of the town's close proximity to neighboring states, residents often pursue services, such as health care, from providers across state lines.
Recently, I learned that a resident of the area was looking for a medical malpractice attorney to pursue a claim that originated in nearby NJ. The woman was unsure whether she needed a NJ attorney to advocate on her behalf.
At Rogan Law, we can pursue your claim for you regardless of the state of origin.
