Texas Professional Malpractice Claims

Legal Malpractice, Accounting Malpractice, Engineering Malpractice, Programming Malpractice, Medical Malpractice, and other forms of professional negligence are extremely important areas of law because people that go to accountants, engineers, architects, doctors, lawyers, and other professionals need to be able to trust the professional to take care of them. The trust established by the expertise of the professional creates an environment where people are healed and problems are solved, however, it also creates an environment where a professional can intentionally or negligently create great harm. If harm arises, an damaged person or business needs to be protected and may need a Texas Malpractice Lawyer or other individual that can explain what the professional did wrong and what needs to be done to remedy the situation.

Class 1 Recall: Hernia Mesh Patch

The mesh patches that are being recalled were surgically implanted into people to support the abdominal wall after hernia surgery and have a “memory recoil ring” that makes it pop into shape after it is inserted. The recall is due to ring breakage, which can result in a sharp, exposed point inside the abdomen, which can perforate the intestines, cause a fistula, abcess, bowel obstruction, and in some cases sepsis and death. If you have had a recent hernia surgery and are experiencing fever, pain at the incision site, abdominal tenderness or distention, nausea, contact your doctor immediately. Anyone that has had a Bard Composix Kugel Mesh Patch should receive notice from their hospital or surgeon. However, this isn’t always the case. Therefore, if you have had hernia surgery, it is probably a good idea to contact your surgeon to find out if your patch was recalled. The recall applies to the oval, large oval, and large circle devices.

The Attorney as Knowledge Worker

The Attorney as Knowledge Worker
BY Jason Coomer, Willie Buehler, and Bob Binder

The practice of law, once stretched by new technology, will never be the same. Like it or not, advances in Information Technology (IT) have changed the way lawyers and other knowledge workers collect, process, and produce information. Lawyers unable or unwilling to use new technology tools to collect and manage the vast amounts of information available and needed to practice law in the 21st Century will be at a competitive disadvantage that may put them out of business.
