According to an article by the Associated Press, President Barack Obama is opposed to the brand of malpractice reform championed by Republican lawmakers as a solution to the rising costs of health care. If you or someone you love has been the victim of improper or lacking medical care, the New Jersey medical malpractice attorneys of Levinson-Axelrod may be able to secure you the financial compensation you deserve.

President Obama is against placing a cap on the amount a jury can award in a case of medical malpractice. Many Republicans are seeking to pass legislation putting a limit to such awards, as they believe it would save money on health care. However, the president does support a new approach to malpractice litigation in which victims could get compensation without having to take anyone to court.
