Video Library

Contained within this video library are literally hundreds and hundreds of educational videos to help you understand how lawsuits work in the state of New York. No matter what type of accident or medical malpractice case you may have, these videos provide you useful information that will make you a better-informed consumer. My goal, when creating these videos was to educate you and teach you about these cases. I originally started creating these videos because there was nobody else anywhere who was educating public online and teaching viewers the step-by-step process that occurs in these cases.

As you know, these videos are not meant as legal advice at all. Rather, they are designed to explain how lawsuits work. I have videos here that range from what an attorney looks for in evaluating a case to videos about how we actually prepare the papers necessary to start a lawsuit to trial practice and cross examination and many more!

I have found that people who come to my website spend a tremendous amount of time here because of all the useful information that explains how the process works here in New York. I have potential clients call me and e-mail me all the time thanking me for educating them and teaching them about this.

Finding the right attorney can be a difficult task. Hopefully, these videos will help you make a decision about which attorney is right for you and what information you need to know before you ever walk into an attorney's office. If you have legal questions, I encourage you to pick up the phone and call me at 516-487-8207 or by e-mail at lawmed10@yahoo.com. I welcome your call.

NEED TO FIND A LAWYER:

• Your Attorney Doesn't Communicate With You- Why Not? NY Medical Malpractice Lawyer Explains
  You have decided to bring a lawsuit, hired an attorney and now after the honeymoon period is over, you realize your lawyer does not communicate with you. Y
  
  ou think that he is doing nothing on your case because he simply does not communicate with you at all. He doesn't call you, he doesn't write to you, he doesn't e-mail you. You naturally believe that his lack of communication means that he's not paying attention to you and your important case.
  
  Watch the video to learn whether this is true.
  
  Find out whether your lawyer has a system in place that will allow him or her to communicate with you on a regular basis. You must always ask the attorney how you can communicate with him or her; either by phone, scheduled phone consult, in person, by e-mail, video chat via Skype or by letter.
  
  The reality is that most attorneys simply get busy and do not have a system in place to keep their clients apprised of all the steps that go on behind the scenes.
  
  Watch the video to learn what I do in my office and how I keep my clients updated on a regular frequent basis.

• Your 1st Call is a Screening Call-New York Medical Malpractice Lawyer Explains
  

  http://www.oginski-law.com

  Most callers to my office are unfamiliar with the purpose of their initial phone call. I typically will ask a few key pointed questions to learn some basic information. If I believe that this type of case would make a good fit for my law firm,  I will invite you into my office so we can have a detailed lengthy chat about what happened.

  When you first call my office to ask for information, that first call is a screening call. My goal is to determine, in quick fashion, what you think was done wrong that caused you permanent harm.

  Many callers believe that once I ask that question, they now should tell me every little detail for the next hour about what happened in their case. That's not what the first call is about. Watch the video to learn more.

HOW LAWSUITS WORK:

• What is "Causation?"
  Did you know that if you are unable to prove causation in your case, you will be thrown out of court without receiving a dime in compensation? It's true.
  
  Causation is that critical link between the wrongdoing and your injury.
  
  In New York we must show that carelessness (or negligence) was a substantial factor in causing or contributing to your injury. If it was not, then a jury will never get to compensate you. If it was a substantial factor in causing your injury, then the jury is obligated to award you compensation.
  
• Is Your Doctor An Expert Qualified To Tetsify At Trial?
  In the old days you would have to get the court to qualify your doctor as an "expert" in order to allow him or her to testify during a trial.
  
  You would have to present the doctor's qualifications and then formally asked the court "Your honor, I ask that Dr. Jones be qualified as an expert before this court."
  
  That formality has pretty much been done away with in New York state courts. Instead, you still have to present the doctor's qualifications to establish that he has a basis upon which to render opinions and conclusions.
  
  However, it is now the jury's decision whether to believe the doctors credibility and qualifications. The jury is allowed to weigh each of those factors to determine whether to accept or reject the expert's testimony.
  
• Can You Bring a Pediatrician In To Testify Against a Surgeon?
  Your case involves a surgical error. Is it acceptable to bring in a pediatrician to testify in your surgical malpractice practice case?
  
  The answer is no. Ideally, you want to bring in a medical expert who has the same type of qualifications as the doctor that you have brought a lawsuit against.
  
  That type of physician will best know what the standards of medical care are compared to a doctor who does not specialize in that field of medicine.
  
  If a pediatrician were to try and testify in a case involving claims of wrongdoing against the surgeon, he would be destroyed on cross-examination.
  
  It would not matter that the pediatrician may have some knowledge of the standards for a particular surgical procedure.
  
  If your case involves surgical error, then you would want a well-qualified board certified surgeon to come in and explain that he does this procedure all the time and is very familiar with the standards of care regarding this particular procedure.
  
• "Doctor, Is This Textbook Authoritative?"
  If you ever sat in on a medical malpractice trial here in New York, during cross examination of a medical expert, you would hear the question "Doctor, do you consider this textbook to be authoritative?"
  
  The answer is a significant one for the doctor. If he says no, then the attorney who is cross-examining him cannot ask him questions about statements in the textbook and whether he agrees or disagrees with the positions in the textbook.
  
  If he agrees that the textbook is authoritative, that means that the trial attorney can now ask him questions about different statements in the book and whether he agrees or disagrees with them.
  
  One of the more fascinating tactics to use at trial is bringing in an entire stack of seven or eight medical textbooks. Then, asking the doctor whether he recognizes each textbook as being an authority in its field.
  
  After the first two or three textbooks that the doctor discards as not being authoritative, the jury quickly understands that no matter what textbook you pull out, the doctor is going to refuse to accept any textbook as authoritative.
  
  Although the doctor will be prepared to give explanations about why these textbooks are not authoritative, the jury will begin to wonder what's going on.
  
• How To Use a Transcript at Trial
  Have you ever seen a lawyer use a transcript at trial during cross-examination?
  You haven't?
  Let me tell you how it can be used at trial.
  
  A transcript is a series of questions and answers put together into a booklet. The questions and answers are given under oath, usually at a pre-trial hearing known as a deposition or an 'examination before trial'.
  
  The experienced trial attorney will use prior sworn testimony to show inconsistencies with what a witness is saying at trial. This can be a very powerful way to show a witness has taken a different position than the one they are now discussing.
  Watch the video to learn more...
  
• "Judge, I Offer These Records Into Evidence"
  Have you ever watched a trial and the attorney says "I offer this report into evidence," and the defense lawyer jumps up and says "Objection!"
  
  Of course you have. In this video I describe why the attorney is objecting and what needs to be done to overcome the objection.
  
  Did you know that in order to admit your medical records into evidence you need to bring into court a medical records witness to testify about the accuracy of your medical records? A witness is also needed to explain how the records are maintained in the ordinary course of business.
  
  Learn another way to get your medical records into evidence in New York in a negligence, medical malpractice or wrongful death case.
  
• Judge Charging Jury-DO NOT ENTER
  What does that mean?
  
  It means that the judge is giving the jury instructions on the law in New York. It means that the case is almost over and the jury is just about ready to go and start deliberating on their verdict.
  
  Before they can start deliberating, they must listen to the law that applies to that particular case.
  
  More importantly, did you know that each attorney has an opportunity to ask the judge to give specific instructions that favors his or her client? It's true.
  
  In fact, the judge is required to ask the lawyers if they have any specific instructions they want the judge to discuss with the jury.
  
  The judge will then decide whether those requests will be honored. That takes place in the Judge's private office with a court stenographer present. That's known as a 'charge conference'.

Medical Malpractice:

• Failure to Diagnose-What Question Does a Medical Malpractice Attorney Need to Know?
  In a failure to diagnose case in New York, your attorney needs to know a key question that will help determine whether or not you have a valid basis for a case.
  
  Not only do we have to show there was wrongdoing, but we have to show the wrongdoing caused injury and that the injury is significant and/or permanent. All of those things must be confirmed by a medical expert who has reviewed your medical records.
  
  The key question that must be answered is whether the injuries and outcome that you suffered are different than if you had received timely and appropriate treatment.
  
• Staten Island Doctor Sued 40 Times & License Revoked
  What does it mean if your treating surgeon has been sued 40 times in the past? Does it automatically mean that something may have been done wrong in your case?
  
  If you have a valid case, can you use the doctor's lawsuit history at trial to get the jury to believe that because of the doctor's past actions it automatically means that he did something wrong in your case?
  Watch the video to learn more.
  
• "How DARE You Bring a Lawsuit!"
  http://www.oginski-law.com
  
  That's what a doctor said in a reply to one of my videos here on YouTube. He was offended. He was outraged. He said some pretty nasty things about being an attorney.
  
  However, he was able to say these things because of the freedoms we have in this Country. Freedoms that our ancestors fought for, strived for and achieved. I was shooting this video the day before Independence day, July 3, 2011 and was kind of outraged that he was so high and mighty; never bothering to focus on the injured victim and what happened to him.
  
  I wanted to respond vigorously to the doctor but realized that I'm not going to change his mind. The fact that he took the time to watch my video in its' entirety and then take the time to leave a blistering comment, was proof enough that my video was compelling.
  
  Watch this video to learn why living in the greatest place in the world means never giving up those freedoms.

Failure to Diagnose Cancer:

• Avastin Advanced Breast Cancer Drug Pulled Off Market by FDA; NY Attorney Gerry Oginski Explains
  Avastin was touted to be the miracle cure for breast cancer patients. It had been proven to choke off the blood supply of the tumor in other types of cancers and had been approved for breast cancer treatment. Avastin happened to be the most popular and best-selling cancer treatment drug for breast cancer. The FDA recently pulled the drug off market because of recent studies that confirmed that the risks far outweighed the benefits.
  
  Recognizing that possibility, the FDA said that this medication can be prescribed by a doctor "off label." What that means is that there are significant risks associated with the medication and doctors can still prescribe it for their patients as long as they recognize significant potential for suffering injury.
  
  Continuing to take this medication will be an extremely expensive proposition. Your health insurance company will likely no longer pay for this medication that costs almost $100,000 per year. According to news reports, Medicare will continue to make payments for the medication, but it is unclear for how long they will continue to do so.
• Failure to Diagnose Cancer, New York Medical Malpractice Lawyer Gerry Oginski Explains
  You have recently been diagnosed with cancer and now you begin your cancer treatment.
  
  It's too late for surgical options and now you must start radiation and/or chemotherapy. While you are sitting for hours getting your chemotherapy, you keep thinking back to the days, months and years leading up to the date that you were diagnosed with cancer.
  
  There is something in the back of your mind that doesn't seem right. You have since learned that many of the symptoms you presented with were actually warning signs that should have been recognized and followed up. Unfortunately, those warning signs were never followed up with and never investigated.
  
  You begin to wonder what would have occurred had the doctor recognized what those warning signs meant. You suspect that if the doctor had investigated at that early stage, that your treatment and your outcome would be different.
  
  You're unsure what to do and whether you should even speak to an attorney.
  
  You should know that you are not alone. This has happened to other people. I answer these types of questions every single day. People call me with questions about whether the medical treatment they received was appropriate, and if not what can they do about it.
  
  As a practicing New York medical malpractice trial lawyer I get questions every day from people who want to know what to do in this exact scenario.

• A Failure To Diagnose Breast Cancer Cost $4.5 Million Dollars
  http://www.oginski-law.com In this case, the failure to diagnose breast cancer in a young woman with a husband and three children cost a group of doctors $4.5 million. What happened? The woman had complained of a lump in her breast and she was correctly referred for a mammogram. The mammogram results were interpreted as "normal" but her lump continue to grow. She was then referred to a breast surgeon for biopsy. Unfortunately, the surgeon failed to biopsy the actual lump, and instead got surrounding tissue which was read as "normal." After being reassured by various doctors that she only had cystic breasts and there was no cancer, she gave no further thought to her growing mass in her breast. Finally, the mass became so pronounced that upon further evaluation, she learned that she had stage IV breast cancer. When her treating doctors looked back at the original tests, they realized that there was evidence of cancer which was never detected or treated. Watch the video to find out what treatment she could have received which would have saved her life.

Surgical mistakes:

• Failure to Daignose Bowel Perforation During Appendix Surgery in New York
  Did you know that just because you suffer a complication following surgery does not necessarily mean there's a basis for a valid medical malpractice case in New York? It's true.
  
  Most injured victims think that just because they developed a complication during or following surgery means that something was done wrong. It may, but many times that's not the case.
  
  Even if something went wrong during surgery, when was it recognized? Did the surgeon realize during surgery what happened and then make efforts to fix the problem? Was the problem recognized after you were discharged home?
  
  Find out why this particular case was not the right one for me. Even though we probably could have shown there was medical negligence and that the carelessness caused injury, find out what was missing that prevented me from investigating further.

• Surgical Complications: Risks of Surgery or Medical Malpractice? NY Trial Attorney Gerry Oginski Explains
  The doctor told you this would be a "routine” procedure. You expected things to go smoothly. You trusted your surgeon. You wake up and realize that there was a problem during surgery. You are told that you need additional treatment or surgery to correct the problem. You're trying to comprehend what has happened. Your family is not as understanding.
  
  In fact, they are furious. They are upset. They are worried that you will get worse. This never should have happened.
  
  You begin to have doubts about competency of your surgeon. You wonder about the competency of the other medical staff. You begin to ask yourself whether the surgery was performed properly or whether something bad happened during surgery.

  Find out whether the complications you experienced are known recognized risks of the surgery, or instead, something that should never have happened. Find out why many of the risks and complications that can occur during surgery do not rise to the level of malpractice.

Emergency Room Errors:

• Dad Fell Out of Bed; Can You Get Hospital Incident Report?
  When something unusual or untoward happens in a hospital, the staff is required to fill out an incident report. Anyone who witnessed the event or participated in the event will usually contribute to filling out an incident report.
  
  The problem is trying to get a copy of that incident report. The hospital attorneys argue that the report is "Privileged" and protected from prying eyes by the NYS Public Health Law.
  
  The problem for injured victims is that they're right. That means that the hospital will not release the report. The reason? It's designed to allow the staff to discuss freely what happened without fear of legal retribution.
  
  It's primarily designed to improve patient care so that events like those that happened do not happen again.
  
• Failure to Diagnose Leads to Surgery; New York Medical Malpractice Attorney Explains
   a patient working in a Brickyard fractured his arm while driving a forklift. He went to a local emergency room where they correctly diagnosed that he had a fracture of his forearm. They put them in a cast and told him to follow up in the orthopedic clinic. He did that.
  
  Every time he returned to the orthopedic clinic they took x-rays and told him that his arm is healing beautifully.
  
  Seven weeks later, the patient has just removed and instead of his arm being straight as it should be, it looked like a roller coaster. The patient asked the doctor why his arm looked so strange. The doctor told him that with a little massage and physical therapy it would be just fine. This was not true.
  
  A prompt visit to an orthopedic surgeon revealed that the patients broken bone was never properly reduced and was instead allowed to heal in an incorrect position. Also troubling was the fact doctors and clinic never recognized and follow-up x-rays that the patient's arm was not correctly aligned or position.
  
  As a result of this carelessness, the patient had to have surgery to read-great bone and then reattach it using titanium rods and screws. He was now left with a surgical scar as well of restriction of motion. Watch the video to learn more.

Eye Doctor Errors:

• Patient Had Brain Tumor; Drs. Didn't Tell Her: $1 Million
  http://www.oginski-law.com In this video we learn how a doctor and hospital that failed to tell a patient she had a brain tumor cost them $1 million dollars. The patient was in a car accident and was evaluated in a New York emergency room. A radiologist correctly interpreted her MRI and said there was a mass growing in her brain. Unfortunately for the patient, nobody bothered to tell her about this tumor. Over the next six months, her vision in one eye deteriorated. Her eye doctor never bothered to check the original MRI from the emergency room, and never ordered another MRI until it was too late. Watch the video to find out what happened.

Gynecology Errors and Mistakes:

• Misread Pap Test Cost Dr. $495,000
  http://www.oginski-law.com In this case, the doctor told the patient that she needed a hysterectomy to remove her uterus because she had invasive cervical cancer. After surgery, the pathology results revealed that this patient never had any type of invasive cancer. It turns out that the original Pap test was misread as well and the cone biopsy test was interpreted incorrectly as well. Watch the video to learn what happened.

Wrongful Death Cases:

• Kidney Dialysis Malpractice Leads to Shunt Rupture, Bloodbath & Death
  When a woman came home from lunch one day to find her husband dead on the bathroom floor in a blood spattered bathroom, she knew something bad happened. What she didn't know at that time was that the kidney center that her husband was going to for dialysis every other day, failed to recognize that his shunt was infected and was potentially deadly.
  
  An autopsy revealed that the dialysis access, known as a shunt, had clearly been infected and untreated. This led to an opening in the shunt which then burst causing the patient to bleed to death within minutes.
  
  Our medical and surgical experts confirmed that this tragedy was preventable. Watch the video to learn more.
• Can You Bring A Wrongful Death Case in New York Without Pecuniary Loss?
  http://www.oginski-law.com
  
  Your loved one has died in New York, and you are devastated. You believe that your family member died because of someone's wrongdoing.  You want answers.
  
  In cases where your loved one was elderly and not working, then it becomes difficult, if not impossible, to show that there was a financial loss to the family as a result of their death. This is known as "pecuniary loss." In NY, one of the elements of proving a wrongful death case include asking "What was the financial loss to the family because your loved one died?"
  
  Where the person was not employed, then there is no way that we can show an actual financial loss to the family, unless there was some other source of income that they were receiving on a regular basis.
  
  Another element that we look at in a wrongful death case in New York is to determine whether your family member suffered pain, from the time of the wrongdoing until their death. If they were under anesthesia during the course of surgery, and something happened during surgery to cause their death without them ever waking up, then it would be difficult, if not impossible, to show that they were conscious and aware of what was happening. In order to prove conscious pain and suffering and be able to include that in a claim for wrongful death, we must be able to show some level of awareness and pain. The NY Courts have held that this can include moaning, groaning and responses to painful stimuli.

Watch the video to see how Gerry was able to prove that both the owner of the property and the snow plow operator were responsible for a dangerous icy condition. Both failed to recognize that piles of snow at the top of a hilly driveway that melted during the day and re-froze in the evening, would create sheets of thin ice making the parking lot a very dangerous place.

• Disfiguring Scars-New York Medical Malpractice Attorney Explains
  http://www.oginski-law.com You are walking down the street one summer day and notice someone in a tank top with horribly disfiguring scars. You think to yourself, "How could they have gotten such scars? Was it from an accident? Was it from surgery?" Are those scars so disfiguring that you are afraid to talk to that person? Disfiguring scars can be terribly embarrassing for the victim. They may be self-conscious about how they appear during the warm months of the year.

• Colostomy in New York-A Disgusting Topic
  http://www.oginski-law.com Today's videotape is gross. Truly. But there is an important reason why I'm talking to you about colostomies. As a medical malpractice lawyer in New York, I encounter people who have had a colostomy after undergoing surgery where there has been some injury to the bowel. If you don't know what a colostomy is, it's an opening from your belly that allows your fecal content to come out and be captured in a bag that must be changed frequently every day. This allows your intestines to heal. Once your intestines have healed, your surgeon can close the opening and your bowel can return to normal function. Why talk about this? Because if you find yourself in a position talking to someone who has had a colostomy, they may be wondering why they needed this in the first place. Watch the video to learn more.

• How To Hire a New York Accident Attorney Without Paying a Dime (Upfront)
  http://www.oginski-law.com You've been involved in an accident, or suffered injury at the hands of a doctor or hospital. You are thinking about bringing a lawsuit but don't know how you would pay an attorney to represent you. Learn how you can hire a New York medical malpractice or accident trial lawyer without having to pay a single penny upfront. This video explores what a "contingency fee" is and why it allows you, as an injured victim, the ability to hire the best trial lawyer you can find without having to pay them a single penny to investigate or prosecute your case. A hundred years ago, if you had a legal problem, you went to an attorney and paid for their time. But what if you couldn't afford to hire an attorney and you needed legal help? Many times, you were out of luck unless the lawyer was willing to take on your case without a fee (also known as pro bono). With a contingency fee, if the lawyer is ultimately successful in obtaining compensation for you, he or she will receive a percentage of the money that they have obtained on your behalf. This allows you to hire a great lawyer without having to pay them an hourly fee.

  I received a call from a man who told me that his home had been destroyed from fire and water damage in Queens. He didn't have homeowners insurance and the condo association and the owner of the building refused to pay for the contents of his apartment. He didn't know what to do or where to turn. When the condo association only wanted to pay to replace the basic walls in his condo and some basic cabinets, without compensating him for any of the personal items in his home, he was frustrated because he knew that they should be paying. Importantly, he had nothing to do with causing the fire or the damage to his apartment at all, and the responsible party was not stepping up to the plate and doing the right thing. He came to me for help to file a claim against the condo association, the owner of the building, and the roofing company that actually started the fire. Watch the video to learn more.

• Unrecognized Bowel Perforation-NY Medical Malpractice Attorney Explains
  You undergo surgery and after leaving the hospital you have continued complaints of abdominal pain. Thinking it's normal, you ignore it for a day or two but it continues to get worse. You call your doctor's office and are told it is normal postoperative pain. Despite taking pain medication and resting, you get weaker, and your pain gets stronger. If you're lucky, you'll get to an emergency room to be evaluated. When the doctors suspect that there is a hole in your bowel, you'll have to go back into surgery. If the contents of your bowel were leaking from a hole, you'll likely need to have part of your bowel removed and the remaining bowel sewn together. The failure to recognize a bowel perforation is often grounds for a medical malpractice lawsuit in New York. If caught early enough, treatment can be effective although prolonged and distasteful. Those unlucky enough to get to a hospital on time, suffer the indignity of death from an unrecognized bowel perforation. Watch the video to learn more.
