Medical Malpractice Defense Problems

Most physicians have malpractice coverage that will provide for legal defense. For various reasons, many physicians feel more comfortable, and it can be of great importance, to have one's personal counsel overseeing the malpractice defense process. Additionally, if there are allegations of conduct for which, if proven by the plaintiff, the physician may not be insured, or if the physician is being sued in an amount in excess of coverage, personal representation known as Cumis Counsel, in addition to insurance company appointed attorneys is a reasonable step to take. It is very common, accepted practice to obtain second opinions, without discharging or improperly interfering with the attorney that already has the primary responsibility for the representation and defense.
