New York City Personal Injury Lisa Beth Older Offers General Information on What to Expect when Seeking Personal Injury Litigation in New York State

Lisa Beth Older offers free consumer advice on personal injury law.

(PRWEB) July 20, 2006 -- Lisa Beth Older offers free consumer advice on personal injury law.

"I am now a New York personal injury lawyer, a NYC personal injury attorney willing to work hard with a reputable law firm and team of attorneys and support staff that has the time and resources to litigate your case to the best possible result," she said. "My team deals with people with serious physical injuries or suffering over the loss of a loved one through wrongful death."

People often ask Older what to look for in a personal injury lawyer in New York.

"I learned everything I know by studying under the best New York personal injury lawyers and by taking CLE Courses that keep me up to date on the several changes in the personal injury law in New York," Older said. "The lawyers I have worked with in the past have a unique combination of compassion for the aggrieved client, an ability to articulate the case to the Court and to the adversary professional knowledge of the field of personal injury, and most importantly the ability to listen and learn from their clients."

She offers the following advice to potential litigants in the Empire State.

The New York personal injury lawyer you would want to retain should speak with you free of charge to see if you have a case. They can not guarantee a result, nor can they take every case as they are guided by New York State laws governing serious physical injury. If you do not have a serious physical injury that meets the legal threshold a New York personal injury lawyer should not take your case and make false promises. The NYC personal injury lawyer you choose to represent you on your case should be available to answer your questions during all stages of the litigation. They should promise that they will be available to fight vigorously in the prosecution of your case.

There is no obligation to hire a personal injury lawyer in New York, but you may speak to one, usually free of charge. Their fee is usually a contingency basis but some will charge costs. Rest assured, as with any lawyer, everything you say or impart upon your case is confidential.

You may discharge an attorney at any time, although you will have to pay to pay that lawyer for their time spent on your case. That is why it is especially important to choose a personal injury lawyer you can trust as it becomes difficult to find a new personal injury lawyer in New York once the case has been commenced by another lawyer. Torts are civil wrongs recognized by law as grounds for a lawsuit. These wrongs result in an injury or harm constituting the basis for a claim by the injured party. While some torts are also crimes punishable with imprisonment, the primary aim of tort law is to provide monetary relief for the damages, and to as public policy stop others from committing the same wrongs you have suffered.

The injured person may sue for an injunction to prevent the continuation of wrongful conduct.

Among the types of damages the injured party may recover are: loss of earnings capacity, pain and suffering, and reasonable medical expenses. They include both present and future expected losses.

Here are some sources you can refer to help you pick your own personal injury lawyer in NY or New York City: Find Law, Lexis Nexis, and the New York State bar Association

"I hope that you find a NY personal injury lawyer that can maximize your results and I hope this information has been helpful," Older said.

I took zyprexa starting in 1996 the year the FDA approved it, which was ineffective for my condition and gave me diabetes.

Zyprexa is the product name for Olanzapine,it is Lilly's top selling drug.It was approved by the FDA in 1996 ,an 'atypical' antipsychotic a newer class of drugs without the motor side effects of the older Thorazine.Zyprexa has been linked to causing diabetes and pancreatitis.

Zyprexa, which is used for the treatment of psychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, accounted for 32% of Eli Lilly's $14.6 billion revenue last year.

Did you know that Lilly made nearly $3 billion last year on diabetic meds, Actos,Humulin and Byetta?

Yes! They sell a drug that can cause diabetes and then turn a profit on the drugs that treat the condition that they may have caused in the first place!

I was prescribed Zyprexa from 1996 until 2000.
In early 2000 i was shocked to have an A1C test result of 13.9 (normal is 4-6) I have no history of diabetes in my family.

All the psychiatrist I've interviewed and the information on line presents zyprexa as a worse offender than the other Atypicals such as seroquel.My doctor has stopped prescribing zyprexa altogether.

The PDR classifies zyprexa as 'severe' for causing weight gain and diabetes and seroquel as 'moderate'.

Of course the 50 year old Thorazine didn't cause diabetes and is many times cheaper but it could cause tardive dyskinesia.

Where Eli Lilly's negligence comes in,is their KNOWING and not informing consumers (black box warning) until the FDA demanded it.

Lilly's incentive not to readily disclose is they had billion$ coming in from state medicaid scripts.
