Injured Child from Medical Malpractice

Injured Child from Medical Malpractice

Has Your Child Suffered Brain Injury Because Of Medical Malpractice?

Medical malpractice cases are negligence cases. This means that you must prove all the elements of negligence to win your case.

It is the worst. If your child has been injured, it's hard enough; but, to have that injury occur because a physician was careless, likely feels unbearable. Not only are you faced with the loss of what you thought was your child's future, you are facing your child's lifetime of medical bills, caretaking bills, loss of income, loss of benefits, and the like. Day in and day out, you have to deal with the after effects of someone else's carelessness.

For example, brain injury and Cerebral Palsy (caused by brain injury) are lifelong afflictions that cause years upon years of emotional, physical, mental, and financial stress. A brain injury changes everything. You need help.

You have a case for and a right to recover for medical malpractice if your child is injured by a medical professional (such as a doctor), who acted or failed to act as standard protocol would necessitate.
