Yes, Allan

Berta recommanded me this guy.

I was hunting a Attorney willing to be paid contingency basis in the civil but I am beginning to wonder if I should go with all the gov't stuff first because somebody told me this yesterday:

"You can file Your own 42 USC 1983 action for wrongful death, medical malpractice any whatever You know. You could file a fraud complaint with the GOA-General Accounting Office, try Your local senator-A gov't piece of shit & or go to the city/county district attorney or the US Attorney & ask for murder charges be filed, criminal negligence resulting in death, manslaughter.

You'd want to do this part 1st & whatever material discovered is used in Your civil rights suit"

What do you think?

I am adding this - this is not posted to ALLVETS:

By the way, I just avoided the street by the skin of the teeth not of my fault and as you know I'll get 610 $ per month. With all the crap I lived because Immigration was not supposed to separate us at the borders because I was married to Ashley - so we lost 19 precious months - and as soon as I entered in the U.S. I was separated definitively from him because he died 5 1/2 months after and all the crap I lived in the damn VA Hospital so I am totally exhausted, always out of breath. (so I can not go to work) I just avoided the street by very few but it is just postponed because of the 610 per month but maybe there is something I can do....

I heard there is Federal foundings other than food stamps and Social Security Assistance even a Legal Immigrant like me would be eligible. Do you know about that? SURELY TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE. If that would exist that would not only help me, that would help thousands of widows because 610 $ when you don't have a family to count on is just good to send you on the street.

No problemo. I managed to remove all the links of the groups - even my 360 which is not a group - except one which is just a pdf document.

[marielovesashley]

Like I mentionned before, I sent another email

To Susan Friery and basically, I had a question for her as if she is accepting to deal on contingency basis.

I think the fact I don't drive a car right now and I don't have a regular phone (just cell phone because I am planning to get out of here a.s.a.p. because you can not pay 375 $ with nothing included with your 610 $ per month pension) if this is not hidering me for getting results and I think it is the case. Because my impression is the Attorneys in general are prefering to deal with phone calls (like everybody else) instead of emails and from that point you have more "punch" if you can go to see them when you see they seem to be interested in your case.

Just wish to check if my impression is right because after all, you told me to call her and I am adding minutes right now but it is not great to give a good impression because of the interferences of the waves - and I tend to believe it is - and IF you know if Mrs. Friery is accepting the contingency basis, please let me know because that would not make me unhappy because I can not pay a Attorney right now.

I think I am forgetting something.....

Mr. Bash is recommanded for the VA office and the VA hospital

and Mrs. Susan Friery is recommanded for the private hospital.

Am I correct? That's my bet because I already read about Mr. Bash

but I need to confirm please.

Thank you.

Marie

p.s. by the way, I was the group owner of the 2 groups

and I am moderating everything there but I wanted to respect

the rules of this forum so I managed to remove them

- that's easy to edit here - and even to remove my popular

blog even if it is not a group.

[marielovesashley]

I got one answer on my recent questions while doing the edition job to remove all my links to my groups and blogs, except the pdf document.

A supporting IME opinion is critical. In my state, Arizona, you must have an IME explicitly stating that malpractice has occurred before even filing a malpractice suit unless the damages are so blatantly obvious that anyone would know it was malpractice--amputating the wrong leg or, like the recent case at VAMC Los Angeles, removing a healthy testicle and leaving the cancerous one in the patient. Those type of claims are usually settled swiftly and quietly. Susan Friery the attorney representing that veteran, and the veteran himself, have decided to go very public and very noisy to "get the VA's attention."

Here is her contact information. She, like most attorneys, will review your claim to determine if it is a valid claim AND if it is worth the effort and expense to pursue. For any qualified attorney to agree to represent you, BOTH of these questions will have to be answered yes.

All I need to know is if my impression is right about the phone and the car business (to have more grip on the events) and also if Mrs. Frery is accepting the contingency basis - you may not have this answer because very specific so I guess I should wait to be moved and having a regular phone to call her.

And of course, continuing to hunt this Attorney for the private hospital. Maybe that is why one of the Attorneys did not accept my case because I presented the VA office, the VA hospital AND the private hospital. So I should just present the private because I have Mr. Bash and Mrs. Frery for the VA.

Thank you again.

Mr. Bash is Dr. Bash - he prepares IMOs (INdependent medical opinions) if it is withih his area of expertise. His fee is based on many factors involving the claim.As mentioned before Medopinions web site also can find a specialist who for a fee can prepare an IMO also-they are plenty of IMO doctors on the web for different types of claims for veterans and widows or widows of veterans.They can give fee info based on a phone call or email and some info as to the claim and the type and amount of evidence.Dr. BAsh is well known at VA and also is very well versed in VA case law and regs. Also docs at medopinions are too-

Their medical opinion is solely based on medical evidence.

The lawyer you mentioned- I would just email or call her and see if she can handle both FTCA-VA claim and the claim against any private hospital as well.Her web site indicates she probably does- depending on the state etc-

Marie:

I am sorry I did not explain well. I was just asking you to not link Hadit to AllVets or yahoo groups. That does not mean that you can't refer to info you have learned and not you home page or groups you own and moderate.

But thank you very much for being willing to work with us. As I said the concern is to not cause any friction with other groups.

It also is evident that you are digging into the information you need to pursue a successful claim

Dr Bash is well thought of by many Veterans who have used him, As far as the lawyer you referenced I don't know her but it appears that some on Hadit it do so you are moving forward and Berta gave you excellent advice.

Good Luck on your claim.
