A woman pays for a sterilization procedure, but none is performed and she is not informed, leading to an unwanted pregnancy. The impact of reversing Roe v. Wade will produce much nuanced caselaw: after judgments and appeals, the Texas court grants her day in court for some damages but not for the cost of "raising a healthy child." Watch this space. FYI, Justia is a free service that you can sign up for and then read both the case summary and the order. I highly recommend it for anyone in a law-adjacent field like an #expertwitness. In this case, #medicalmalpractice experts and #physicians. https://lnkd.in/gkDFBhRf

Mothers and infants may face injuries during childbirth due to medical negligence. For mothers, complications like internal bleeding, high blood pressure, and improper pain management can have severe consequences if undiagnosed or not promptly addressed. Babies may suffer injuries, such as oxygen deprivation, nerve damage, and skull injuries, due to medical oversights. Identifying when issues occur during pregnancy or childbirth can be challenging. For instance, if your child experiences brain oxygen deprivation, developmental defects may arise, but it might take years to notice speech or coordination delays. Many parents may not connect these delays to delivery room errors. We recognize the emotional challenges of seeing your child suffer or experiencing the loss of a spouse during delivery. Holding negligent medical professionals accountable is our priority.

Labor and childbirth rarely go exactly as parents hope when they’re making a birth plan. Laboring moms may ask for medication when they planned a drug-free birth or a baby’s position or other circumstances may require a C-section. Fortunately, the majority of childbirths have a happy ending, but sadly, in some circumstances, labor, or delivery goes so badly that it ends in catastrophe rather than a happily-ever-after. When this occurs due to the negligence of a doctor or medical professional, parents are entitled to compensation for the tragedy. Read this week's blog to learn what a catastrophic birth is and who can be held liable if you find yourself or your loved one in this unfortunate situation: https://lnkd.in/grrM9Udq #MedicalMalpractice #WrongfulDeath #MedicalMalpracticeIllinois #WrongfulDeathIllinois #MedicalMalpracticeLawyer #WrongfulDeathLawyer #MedicalMalpracticeAttorney #WrongfulDeathAttorney #MedicalMalpracticeLawyerIllinois #WrongfulDeathLawyerIllinois #MedicalMalpracticeAttorneyIllinois #WrongfulDeathAttorneyIllinois #MedicalMalpracticeLawFirm #WrongfulDeathLawFirm #MedicalMalpracticeLawFirmIllinois #WrongfulDeathLawFirmIllinois #MedicalMalpracticeLawFirmChicagoIllinois #WrongfulDeathLawFirmChicagoIllinois
