Birth Injury / Cerebral Palsy
The precious little girl was injured as a result of a nurse-midwife’s improper maneuvers performed during labor and delivery, as well as by the failure of other nurses to act when the child’s health was at a critical crossroads. Hotly contested deposition testimony revealed that this nurse midwife and hospital nurses were clearly in over their heads, yet inexplicably failed to notify the physician before the situation spiraled out of their control, unfortunately leaving this child without oxygen for a significant period of time, causing an irreversible brain damage.
As a result of this settlement, this wheelchair-bound child will be able to receive necessary therapy sessions, home modifications, medical devices, and other items she will need throughout the course of her lifetime.
