Our Michigan birth injury lawyers handle cases involving neonatal malpractice claims.   These cases often result in significant settlements and jury verdicts because of the cost of care for the special needs of the child throughout his or her lifetime.  This includes costs for medical expenses, special education, specialized housing and transportation, and supervision.

A neonatologist must carefully monitor the baby for signs of distress before delivery. After the baby  is born, the baby  must continue to be closely examined for signs of newborn distress. If there is any evidence of fetal distress or newborn distress, the neonatologist must initiate treatment quickly to avoid permanent harm or injury to the baby.

In some instances, the doctors or nursing staff fail to timely recognize this distress and this can cause life-altering.  There are many reasons for these failures, ranging from understaffing the neonatal department or simply just negligence in failing to properly monitor the baby.  Whatever the reason, the baby can be deprived of oxygen and can suffer permanent brain damage.  When this happens, the doctors and hospital who are responsible for any injuries must be held fully accountable.

A Los Angeles jury recently awarded a brain damaged child $7.3 million dollars in a hospital malpractice lawsuit.  The lawsuit alleged that the hospital failed to diagnose and treat the child for meningitis when the child was just one year’s old.  The failure to treat the infection caused permanent and irreversible brain damage to the child.

The suit alleged that had the child been treated sonner with antibiotics, she would not have suffered the brain injury.  She now requires physical therapy and behavioral therapy as a result of her brain damage.  Bacterial meningitis is a treatable illness if timely diagnosed and if treatment is started in a timely manner.
