Do I have a medical malpractice suit if my step father was being over medicated and committed suicide?

I am usually pretty skeptical about psychiatric malpractice cases alleging negligent medication monitoring in a patient who commits suicide, but given the recent arrest of the prescribing defendant, you certainly have reason to be suspicious.  If you want to investigate a case, you should contact a local medical malpractice attorney (one in your state).  They take these cases on a contingency basis which means you only have to pay if you succeed.  Click here for an article that explains what you can and should expect when pursuing a medical malpractice case.

I am not doing anything to protect any legal rights that you have.  Medical malpractice cases need to be thoroughly investigated and to know whether you have a viable case, an attorney usually has to obtain and review all of the pertinent medical records and consult an expert.  John Ratkowitz, Esq. 105 Eisenhower Parkway Roseland, NJ 07068 Office: (973) 830-8441 Cell: (732) 616-6278 Fax: (973) 226-0031 Email: jratkowitz@starrgern.com.  Click here for my website.
