Medical practitioners must be careful and competent in
all procedures that they perform. Each State establishes
systems by which medical practitioners are certified to
practice; thus the State tries to prevent careless, negligent,
and unskilled medical practitioners from harming the health
and lives of their innocent patients. The action for Medical
Malpractice is meant to make those careless, negligent,
and unskilled medical practitioners compensate their patients
when the practitioner does not live up to the State licensing
guidelines. Pete Decker and his firm of lawyers are here
to protect you and your interests. Please contact us if
we can help you in any way.
This area of the law can be very confusing and complicated.

All prisoners must be granted the rights and liberties
that are not fundamentally at odds with their incarceration.
In other words, while an inmate is serving his or her
sentence he or she must be afforded those rights and liberties
that do not directly contradict the nature and form of
his or her incarceration. The beauty of our Nation's Constitution
is that it protects all parties equally and to every extent
possible. While in the penal system prisoners do lose
some fundamental rights that they would have outside the
penal system; that is the nature and purpose of incarceration.
However, the Constitution also guarantees that a prisoner's
period of incarceration will not be cruel or unusual and
that the penal system's actions must be reasonably related
to the interests of the penal system. Thus the penal system
may not unilaterally act to strip inmates of rights and
liberties unless it is reasonably necessary for their
proper incarceration. Pete Decker and his firm care about
all people. If you or a loved one are having difficulties
within the penal system please contact us so that we can
help find a satisfactory solution.
An individual State has no obligation to create a parole
system, or to grant parole simply because an inmate has
already served the minimum sentence. However, once a parole
system is in place it must be adhered to equally in all
situations and parole should never be denied for unpredictable
or speculative reasons. Mr. Decker has previously served
on the Virginia State Board of Corrections for twelve
years, sitting as Chairman for six of the twelve years.
Presently, Mr. Decker sits on the Virginia State Criminal
Sentencing Commission. His past experiences in the area
of Probation and Parole represents the kind of knowledge
and expertise a potential parolee needs.
