Medical Malpractice

Our client presented to the hospital in this case for delivery of her baby. The attending medical providers failed to recognize obvious signs and symptoms of fetal distress; furthermore, they failed to provide timely resuscitation. The delay led to severe Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE) and catastrophic brain damage. As a result, this precious little girl will require around the clock care for the rest of her life. The monies will enable her to receive the care she requires, as well as provide the necessary support so as to improve her quality of life as much as possible.

Medical Malpractice

This case involved the negligent care of a three-month old’s respiratory illness which resulted in an arrest and failed intubation. Ultimately, the child suffered Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE) of his brain as a result. Because of the doctor and nurse’s negligence the baby’s brain was damaged so badly he will never be able to function independently. The settlement money is intended to provide for the baby’s needs for life as well as compensate his parents for their loss of his companionship and affection. The settlement amount exceeds the maximum amount recoverable under the West Virginia Medical Malpractice Act, a disputed point of law in the case.
