Q&A: Help trying to get a lawyer – malpractice/negligence lawsuit against a dentist (kind of long)?

Question by gamerdude200808: Help trying to get a lawyer – malpractice/negligence lawsuit against a dentist (kind of long)?
My mom went to a dentist on 4/28/10 for a checkup because she knew she had bad teeth and wanted to see what could be done about it, if anything. We chose a local dentist and she went there for a checkup. They did an x-ray of her mouth and said she needed to have 11 teeth extracted due to having periodontitis (gum disease). Absolutely no antibiotic was given to my mom to even try to begin treatment for this at all. They wanted to extract all 11 teeth right then and there, but of course that’s an immediately random thing to do and most people can’t instantly get a week off from work to get well from such a thing.

Question by Evan B: Need help as to whether or not to file a lawsuit for medical negligence leading to death!?
My girlfriends father had been experiencing some problems, to which they thought seeing someone at a cardiac hospital would be appropriate. So, this Monday they went and explained to the doctor his symptoms: shortness of breath, fatigued after merely walking short distances around the house, dizzyness, lightheadedness, general discomfort. He also admitted to the doctor that he had stopped taking his medication prescribed for irregular heartbeat a while back. The doctor himself also determined that his resting heartbeat was 130bpm and that he had swelling in his ankles. The doctor then gave a prescription for the previousl medication, and sent him on his way, with a follow up appointment for another day.
