Is it reasonable to put a 500k cap on lawyer fees for malpractice lawsuits?
This would be a quick way for Democrats to prove they are not letting Trial Lawyers write their healthcare proposals as part of a scheme top open up taxpayer-funded coffers to their firivilous lawsuits:

Why are Democrats in no hurry to cap malpractice lawsuits but complain that those are the problem?
Is it because their buddy trial lawyers who go after these Doctors and win the millions of dollars, turn around and contribute to their campaigns?

What is the logic behind not putting caps on malpractice lawsuits?
Monetary settlements are often issued in substantiated malpractice lawsuits
Malpractice is classified as professional misconduct. It can be deliberate or it can be the result of not following the proper procedures. In some cases, it is the result of negligence and errors that take place. Most malpractice lawsuits involve medical or dental procedures where the patient was adversely affected either physically, emotionally, or both due to the situation.
Monetary settlements are often issued in substantiated malpractice lawsuits. They can be settled in court or out of court. The dollar amount issued depends on the level of damages that has taken place. It also takes the future of the patient into consideration.
Someone who can’t return to their profession or who will need ongoing medical care will be awarded a much larger sum of money to help cover the loss of wages and the cost of care. In some states there is a dollar amount limit and others are open. They monetary award amount can be set by a judge or a jury.
Practitioners and medical businesses are required by law to carry malpractice insurance. The coverage that is required varies by state. This type of insurance is very expensive but a necessity to prevent the facility or the practitioner from going broke if an individual does have a legitimate lawsuit to pursue based on the services they received.
The cost of malpractice insurance has lead training facilities in the medical profession to give more guidance and hospitals to put specific procedures in place. It is believed the idea of a possible lawsuit being filed encourages a practitioner to be more aware of the choices they make when working with patients.
You will need to contact a lawyer who specializes in malpractice cases to assist you. Make sure they are well trained in the type of lawsuit you need. Find out what your rights are as well as the types of damages you can ask for in your lawsuit. You will likely have to pay the lawyer a portion of the money awarded. Make sure you conduct research to ensure the percentage you are asked to pay is comparable with other lawyers who offer the same services.
Filing a malpractice lawsuit is frowned upon by many in our society. They view it as a way to get easy money. However, for anyone who has been traumatized by the negligence of a professional they trusted, no amount of money can take back what happened. The situation can have an adverse effect on them for the rest of their lives, especially for those who lost someone they loved due to negligent care.
