Experienced Ohio Cerebral Palsy Attorneys
When people in the obstetrical health care system, including doctors and nurses, fail to provide an acceptable standard of care, the babies who are born with birth injuries and conditions are often the ones who suffer for it. Those children often have to deal with these complications for years — sometimes for a lifetime — and the emotional and financial burdens can be significant.
At Lancione & Lancione, PLL, our tough and highly knowledgeable attorneys have recovered substantial verdicts and settlements for our clients. We advocate for babies and their families who have suffered cerebral palsy, Erb's palsy, stillbirth or other conditions as the result of medical negligence during pregnancy, labor or delivery.
Toledo Birth Injury Lawyers
Our birth injury lawyers in Georgia are devoted to helping our clients deal with the costs of care, therapy and accommodations of disabilities such as cerebral palsy. We have achieved successful birth injury claims for our clients that include:
- $5 million for a twin who was injured when umbilical cord prolapse occurred and the needed C-section delivery was unnecessarily delayed
- $3.75 million for a child and his family who suffered severe cerebral palsy when the obstetrician ignored obvious risk factors (maternal diabetes; overweight fetus) and failed to recommend C-section
- $2.6 million for a child who suffered severe brain damage after the obstetrician failed to respond to fetal distress during induced labor, as reported by nurses
- $2.3 million for a child with severe cerebral palsy after the nursing staff failed to recognize fetal distress on the fetal heart monitor tracing
- $1.1 million for a baby who developed Erb's palsy as a result of a brachial plexus injury at birth resulting from the obstetrician's failure to employ standard maneuvers known to be effective in relieving shoulder dystocia
Birth injury cases are extremely complex and difficult to prove. In order to protect your clients and to pursue only those cases that have merit, we work with medical experts to fully evaluate claims of malpractice.
