Joint Replacement in Personal Injury Litigation

Often accident injuries result in in post-traumatic arthritis, which will eventually lead to the need for a joint replacement procedure. Presenting evidence about a surgical procedure which has not yet taken place creates unique challenges for persoanl injury lawyers like us, for our clients and for the treating physician. We joined forces with noted orthopedic surgeon Richard Zamarin, M.D. of RSZ Orthopaedics to create a fascinating DVD presentation on joint replacement surgery. Many of our clients require partial or total joint replacements after accidents. Knee and hip replacements are the most common. This DVD demonstrates some of the potential pitfalls and challenges in these cases, and Dr. Zamarin literally walks us step by step through the knee replacement procedure from initial exam through the post-operative care and the level of function a patient may expect.
