2012 has already seen a lot of changes for us at Aronfeld Trial Lawyers.  We are happy to announce the addition of our newest associate Natalie Vassilaros and paralegal Gia Acevedo.
"Why I Became a Lawyer"

Our lawyers have been working hard and have resolved two car crash cases that occurred in January both for the defendants' policy limits.

We are also appealing two cases that were dismissed by judges in the Miami-Dade Circuit Court to the Third District Court of Appeal.  One involved the enforcement of an arbitration contract written in English signed by our client who neither reads nor speaks English, moments before undergoing a complex surgery essentially waiving her rights to a jury trial and the other sadly involves the alleged failure to properly diagnose and treat a depressed patient that committed suicide.  We are honored to be assisted in both appeals by Daniel Bushell a Board Certified Appellate Attorney who practices in Boca Raton. 

I believe that no patient should undergo medical care without having the right to hold a doctor or hospital accountable in a court of law, not in an arbitration.  To learn more about how to protect your legal rights before undergoing an operation read this. 

And most importantly Happy 13th birthday to my little girl, Sara Rose, Kid Lawyer who is proving to be a chip off the old block.  Here she is (center) working at Lawyers to the Rescue's Legal Clinic translating Spanish to English for lawyers and clients.  I love you Sara.

I had the honor of speaking at the Legal Tech 2012 in New York about how lawyers use social media, like this email blast, to connect with others.  Check out the interview below.

FIGHT BREAKS OUT ON SET OF CRISTINA  

 

I dodged a bullet on the Spanish Talk Show "Cristina" when a fight/riot broke out between members of the audience and guests.  I was saddened by the confrontation. Fortunately, my son Nory and Legal Assistant Kitty who were both in the audience escaped harm.  Watch what happens when a victim of unlicensed plastic surgery confronts the alleged perpetrator.  I am no longer representing the victim.

Pregnant Americans forced to live without health insurance, are choosing to deliver babies at home with midwives instead of at
hospitals with doctors.  Research shows that planned home births receive fewer medical procedures like epidurals, fetal heart rate monitoring and episiotomies.  Although home and hospital births have similar perinatal mortality rates, once a baby is delivered at home it is three times more likely to die. We are suing a Florida nurse midwife, ob-gyn and hospital after a baby was prematurely born at 26 weeks.  I do not recommend women giving birth at home with a nurse midwife. However, if you do chose home birth, it should only be done by women having completely normal pregnancies.  Therefore, a midwife should never be considered if the mom has diabetes, hypertension, or carrying multiples...»

 

 

Does Florida's FDOT Care About Monorail Safety? 

 

I recently wrote a blog for the Huffington Post about how the Florida Department of Transportation has taken a hands-off approach to the inspection and safety of the MIA monorails even though MIA is located within the State of Florida. ...»

  

 

 

The legal definition of "rape" in the United States is only "the forcible vaginal penetration by a man." This outdated classification excludes victims who are drugged or intoxicated or the alleged anal raping of young boys by former Penn State Coach Sandusky.  Recently the Department of Justice asked  the F.B.I. to expand the definition. Why did this take so long? The new definition should also include non-consensual sex forced upon a man by a woman. I once represented a male patient that was sexually assaulted by a female healthcare provider while a resident in a Florida nursing home.  The new legal definition of rape should also include both men and women who have been sexually assaulted while receiving a medical procedure.  ...»
