Case Details
Pregnant plaintiff with pre-eclampsia symptoms was misdiagnosed twice and sent home from ER. Later suffered seizures and was involved in a car accident. Her daughter was delivered with severe brain damage due to the mother's undiagnosed eclampsia.
Additional Notes
Settled on the 'courthouse steps' for lifetime care and funding for the child in excess of $15,000,000 via a guaranteed annuity. ER misdiagnosed pre-eclampsia. Defendants argued car accident caused injury, but forensic pathologists proved placental damage occurred before the accident.
