Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California
Hair Transplant and False advertising
I had a hair transplant done by the largest Medical
Group in the country. I was told one lie after another. I was not told important thing's such as
the procedure would leave scars in the back of my head, or that a complete hair transplant would require several procedures to complete. They did show me before and after pictures, but I later found out that this particular medical group had been sued before for false advertisement because they had air brushed the after pictures.
I done my own investigation since then and found out that there's been hundreds of complaints on this particular medical group. Is there something I can do?

Re: Hair Transplant and False advertising
It sounds like you may have a cause of action for Medical Malpractive (failure to disclose, and negligence in the procedure if the work was not up to professional standards). You may also have a cause of action for Fraud.
You should consult with an attorney. If you are in SoCal you may call me for a free telephone consult at 818-998-1584

Yes . . . if you have suffered personal injuries such as scarring . . . you may have an action to recover damages . . . sounding in negligence, battery, misrepresentation and/or fraud . . . there are different time frames within which you must file a formal court action or you will forever be barred from obtaining any recovery . . . generally one year from the date of discovery; but one year from the date of the incident for battery . . . you need to seek the advice of counsel promptly to preserve your rights as there are preliminary matters which may affect your right to recover . . . you may contact me directly should you need help . . .
