Wisconsin families win in Senate vote
In Wisconsin families of medical malpractice victims won an important first step to justice when the state Senate voted in favor of The Family Justice Bill. Under current Wisconsin law if a single, 18 year-old living at home with her parents dies because of negligence by the medical establishment the family has no legal recourse. Adult children of widowed, divorced or single parents don't have the right to seek retribution they have died as a result of medical negligence. The Family Justice Bill is an important piece of legislation that insures everyone in Wisconsin can seek justice if a loved one dies as a result of medical negligence. The state Senate has agreed and voted in favor of the bill. Now it goes to the Assembly.
