Illinois medical malpractice – When a fusion surgery fails

One of the most invasive surgeries you can have is a lumbar (back) or cervical (neck) fusion.  It involves a severely injured disc that is repaired by literally putting hardware in to your body.  While you can live a productive life after (Peyton Manning has had a cervical fusion) it’s a long road to recovery […]

Lead poisoning and lawsuits

I have a couple of kids who are old enough to know better now, but when they were young they’d put anything and everything in their mouths. My kids were normal babies.  It makes sense that young ones are curious about the world and want to feel and taste things.  Sometimes it’s gross, but it […]
