Can a friend be sued by the doctor if she loses a medical malpractice suit?

Asked by a user in Rensselaer, NY - 25 days ago.

Although "anyone can sue anyone", it is unheard of for a doctor to bring a "counter suit". And, unless it is the most extraordinary circumstance, it will be thrown out of court. Your friend should consult a malpractice attorney to see if she actually has a good case.No cost - no harm. Steven E. North, Esq at www.north-law.com
