Re: Dead PHI Crew Member's Spouse Sues Company, Pilot's Estate

[Guest guest]

Is the pilot the only one he is sueing? Or as mentioned earlier is he sueing

everyone that may have some fault in the death in order to be able to collect

from the companys insurance? Plus you have to start high to get a reasonable

offer or judgement it seems.

bring. I don't wish any further pain on the family of any of those involved, but

we need to ask the questions, and if the only way to have them answered is

through the legal system, then so be it.

Louis,

          I'm sorry that happened to you. You did the right thing in responding

very quickly to the tragedy at hand. Why did it take this individual so long to

wait? We  probably will never know and just speculate " why " on this group. Like

I stated: it is just my opinion based on previous experiences within the

judicial system, and  it may not pertain to this particular case.

The whole point here is they are within thier rights and it's thier

business. Period.

The fact it was a very public death and was in the EMS family does not

make it the publics business nor are we true family.

The whole thing just struck a nerve in me.

Answer to Question 1: With a final judgment they can take anything that's

not exempt under the Texas Constitution or the statutes.

Answer to Question 2: I recommend personal insurance. I buy HPSO

myself. Even if you never get sued, it pays up to $10,000 to defend your

certificate if DSHS gets after you and tries to take it; $2,500 for a lawyer to

go

with you if you have to give a deposition as a witness, and a bunch of other

stuff that's not covered by your employer's policy and that would not be

provided by your employer. I pay $185 as a paramedic/instructor/with the

consultant and witness rider. That's for $1,000,000/$3,000,000. You can't

beat that. That's about 1/2 the average lawyer's hourly fee.

Hmmm, this is a sad tragedy, hopefully everything will work out at the end.

However, my question is and I'm sure other people have had this question before

in the past is dealing with personal medical malpractice insurance as I have

heard different views.

Basically, if someone were to sue and the individual Medic gets named in the

suit along with there employer and the resident mascot can the plaintiff

legally take everything the individual Medic owns with the exception of there

house and vehicle?

Also, is it wise to purchase personal medical malpractice insurance so you will

have an attorney looking out for your interest? HPSO has individual policies

that doesn't cost very much. Just curious others viewpoint. Be safe.

I've always been of the view that your damned if you do and damned if you don't.

If you have ins. and the more you have the more you invite lawsuits. . If you

don't have insurance they can sue you for what you got, which in my case would

be nothing. Oh they could ask for 20% if all future income until I paid of x

amount, but good luck with that. Anyway in this case you made me think of

another point. The pilot's family could sue the other two crew members, the

dispatcher and a slew of other folks like the other HEMS service, Hospital that

called, the weather man, and the weather man's estate. Suit vs counter suit = a

draw. You can also sue FAA and the Fed Government, State Government, City,

County, the Forest Service since the trees could have been lower, and it just

unlimited. I always took the stand of don't offer anything to invite anyone to

sue in the first place.

Lawsuits happen, even the frivolous ones. Worrying about whether

carrying extra liability insurance will invite more lawsuits is like

worrying that carrying full coverage automotive insurance will cause

your car to become an accident magnet.

Bottom line, it all boils down to two things:

1. Nice guys get sued, but pricks get sued far more often, even if the

care they provided was far superior to Mr. Nice Guy's.

2. Documentation will save your ass. It doesn't matter if the care was

superlative if the documentation doesn't reflect it. To a jury, you are

what you write.

My truck is a magnet for shopping carts a Wal-Mart and HEB. They just seem to

always find my vehicle, just like the rocks flying from trucks and cars cracking

my windshield. With all the massive ins. I have the deduct is higher than the

damage.

Re: Re: Dead PHI Crew Member's Spouse Sues Company,

Pilot's Estate

Answer to Question 1: With a final judgment they can take anything that's

not exempt under the Texas Constitution or the statutes.

Answer to Question 2: I recommend personal insurance. I buy HPSO

myself. Even if you never get sued, it pays up to $10,000 to defend your

certificate if DSHS gets after you and tries to take it; $2,500 for a lawyer to

go

with you if you have to give a deposition as a witness, and a bunch of other

stuff that's not covered by your employer's policy and that would not be

provided by your employer. I pay $185 as a paramedic/instructor/with the

consultant and witness rider. That's for $1,000,000/$3,000,000. You can't

beat that. That's about 1/2 the average lawyer's hourly fee.

LOL, you have a point there, Ron.

I've also discovered that wearing clean underwear like your mother told

you virtually assures an accident.

Practice defensive driving by going commando, that's my motto!

Thanks for the information and everyone's input. I'll research what they can

take in a lawsuit under the Constitution just for personal knowledge. Be safe.
