Scott Monge Handles Medical Malpractice Court Claims Seeking Damages for Wrongful Death Cases

101 14
A family knows no greater betrayal or despair than loss of a loved one at a doctor's hands.

Doctors swear an oath, first and foremost, to do no harm; how could any caring, compassionate, competent physician violate such a sacred trust? When reckless, negligent, inattentive, stubbornly arrogant or over-tired, over-stressed physicians claim loved ones' lives, families desperately desire consolation in their grief, and they demand justice for their needless losses. In Atlanta, grief-stricken families frequently call The Accident Attorneys of Monge & Associates. Widows, orphans, and bereaved survivors know they can count on the compassion of Monge & Associates, not to mention the conscientiousness, and considerable knowledge.

An attorney's greatest challenge
Malpractice cases are not for the faint-of-heart or weak-of-mind. In fact, veteran trial attorneys candidly confess nothing in the practice of law poses more or greater challenges than making the case a physician's or surgeon's negligence has resulted in wrongful death. In a wrongful death case, a crusading personal injury attorney puts his intellect, experience, and passion up against the nation's finest, best-educated, highest-priced and best-staffed, coldest and most heartless legal sharks, praying he can win justice for an ordinary family.

One survivor of her father's gut-wrenching and exceptionally difficult wrongful death case explains, "The doctors did all they could to complicate the medical issues, trying to blame my father for all that happened. The insurance companies fought every claim right down to the last Tylenol capsule, using all kinds of pseudo-legal hocus pocus to avoid payments, and often just flat-out lying about the law. Of course, the doctors' and insurance companies' lawyers were the worst, asking the same questions in a million different ways and frequently alleging we were lying or we were just greedy, money-hungry vultures." With a hearty sigh of relief and satisfaction, she concludes, "Our attorney zealously represented the family every step of the way, aggressively argued against the doctors' and lawyers' nonsense, counseled us in our grief and frustration, and ultimately won a handsome settlement."

Scott Monge modestly says, "That is our vision of providing excellent service."

A wrongful death action should never go to trial.
Although Monge & Associates will not hesitate to take a case to trial if they cannot win an equitable settlement for wrongful death clients, these attorneys understand no grieving family wants the public exposure and emotional ravages of a trial, and he recognizes the difficulty of litigating wrongful death cases. Plaintiffs' attorneys frequently have difficulty finding medical experts willing to testify. Doctors do not like to speak ill of their colleagues, because they must continue working together. Physicians tend to close ranks around their embattled friends, and they jealously guard their own reputations by avoiding the harsh lights of high-profile trials. Attorneys also have difficulty putting a value on "loss of companionship" and the other traumatic consequences of a wrongful death. Skillfully managing depositions, presenting compelling evidence and exhibits, and impeaching the testimony of medical and insurance experts, Monge & Associates has won more-than-equitable settlements without subjecting wrongful death clients to the rigors and horrors of a trial.
