Medical Billing Dispute — dentist damaged nerve during procedure

I've been trying to resolve this on my own but I'm stuck.

dentist damaged nerve during procedure. I've been dealing with this for about 3 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have already consulted briefly with a lawyer but the other party is not cooperating.

Am I overthinking this or is this a real legal issue worth pursuing?

I had a similar issue and ended up consulting with an attorney. It was worth the $200-300 for the initial consultation just to understand my rights.

I've handled similar cases. Here's my take on the legal issues.

There are several legal theories that could apply here. The strongest is probably the relevant statute, which requires showing actionable.

You should consult with a local attorney who handles these cases. Many offer free initial consultations.

Been there. Here's what I learned.

What worked for me was escalating to a supervisor/manager. It took 1-3 months but was worth it.

NAL, but from what I've read, you should document everything. That said, definitely get a lawyer to look at the specifics.

I work in this industry and unfortunately this is very common. The good news is that when people actually push back with legal representation, companies usually settle.

I've dealt with this before.

The biggest mistake people make in this situation is filing with the appropriate government agency. I'd recommend gathering evidence first instead.
