Elbow Surgery

[Grantham]

Ihave had four surgerys on my right elbow due to a fall from a 6 ft ladderon 12/28/06. The last surgery damaged my ulna nerve and they have recommended surgery to repair this damage. Do I have a case for malpractice? This is a workmens comp case. Thank you in advance.

Sorry Murtagh, it's impossible to answer this question without doing a complete review of your medical records involving the elbow. It's best to consult with an experienced medical malpractice attorney in your area on this as they

Be aware that there are short time limits called Statutes of Limitations that apply. If you don't file before these expire, you cannot recover.
