Turnersville, NJ Personal Injury Law Firms & Lawyers

Someone can always sue, that's not the issue, the issue is whether or not you can win that lawsuit.  Your case seems to be something that might be very difficult to prove, and is not a "sure thing".  Because of that, it might be difficult to find an attorney willing to undertake all of the time (and expense) of bringing the lawsuit on a contingency fee basis.  If you are willing to pay an hourly fee, then a lawyer might accept the case.   There are many factual issues:  Did you ever complain about shoulder pain while pitching?  Did anyone at the school ever tell you to keep pitching? Did a coach or trainer ever say to you don't worry about how much you pitch it won't bother you?  Did you ever complain about pain?   It seems like you might have many proof issues if you pitched softball for three years, did not complain about the pain while pitching, and then a year after you stopped, you were told you have a problem with your shoulder caused by the pitching.  You have 90 days to alert the school from the time you knew, or should have known about the problem. If you are within 90 days of being told your shoulder is injured, you can still file.  Good luck.

There is no set fee. There are many variables such as your age, your earning capacity, how much you lost from work, if any, as the direct result of the botched surgery or the defective devise, the medical bills, the amount of insurance that the doctor and or hospital, or in your case, the device manufacturer carries, etc. etc. There are many more variables as well.
