Amidst Ongoing Litigation, Partial Settlement Reached for For Infant’s Lifelong Birth Injury
Donahue & Horrow LLP is pleased to share that our team was able to obtain a partial settlement in a traumatic birth injury case. A family came to Donahue & Horrow LLP following a problematic labor and delivery that caused the baby to be born pale, limp, and not breathing. Eventually, the baby was diagnosed with a traumatic brain injury, cerebral palsy, and other related conditions.
Our team obtained the necessary medical records and filed a lawsuit alleging that the hospital and attending physicians were negligent during labor and delivery and failed to conduct a c-section despite abnormal fetal monitory and obvious fetal distress. The physicians then used a vacuum during delivery, against the express wishes of the parents.
While the litigation is ongoing, we were able to reach a settlement with one of the defendants, obtaining all available insurance proceeds. This will allow our clients to obtain the best available care for their child going forward.
