Your bigger question is whether the damages are significant enough to warrant a claim at all.
Is she OK now?
Are there any future damages?
Was she off work? Why?
is the SC doctor willing to testify and sign an affidavit that the FL doctor was negligent (if not, then it makes the case even tougher to handle).
Any case would require you to come to Forida to testify at deposition, for mediation and for trial. Is that a problem?
