Birth Injury Compensation

If your child is suffering from a birth injury because of the negligence of a doctor or wrongful act, it can be devastating. These injuries often require lifetime treatment and care, leaving you with massive financial burdens.

Many birth injuries cases involve a complex debate over medical errors versus malpractice. Our lawyers can clarify the differences.

Costs of Treatment

When determining how much to decide on a settlement for a birth trauma lawyers from insurance companies and judges evaluate the severity of the injury and the impact it has on the child's quality of life. For instance when a child needs constant medical attention that will increase the value of an claim.

Medical treatment for birth injuries can be very expensive. The compensation for a birth injury can help families pay for these expenses. Lawyers often collaborate with experts to put together a "Life Care Plan" which estimates the lifelong expenses incurred by a child's accident. These include hospitalization including surgical interventions, specialized medical treatment, prescriptions, home renovations and equipment, as well as other.

Your legal team will collect medical records from the pregnancy and birth of your child, as well firsthand accounts from relatives. These documents will be used to prove that your child was injured due to medical malpractice, and also to prove the extent to which the injury occurred.

Many states have enacted medical indemnity funds to offer financial aid to families of children suffering from birth injuries. These funds either collect the portion of malpractice insurance premiums or require hospitals and doctors to contribute to the resource pool. In addition to providing financial assistance, these programs could also decrease the requirement for families to file a lawsuit. JLARC staff discovered that these programs did not always achieve their goals and could be improved.

Life Care Planning

Children suffering from conditions like hypoxic ischephalopathy or cerebral palsy will need medical care for the rest of their lives. This includes physical therapy, special equipment, and home health. In many cases, these expenses can be very expensive.

A life-care planning document is one that lists the future medical, educational home, and other expenses a child with disabilities will endure throughout their lifetime. These plans are typically used to help calculate the financial portion of damages awarded in a birth injury lawsuit. These plans must be comprehensive and meticulously drafted to satisfy the strict requirements of admissibility.

Experts in life-care planning may assist in the development of these documents based on the their input and the formal opinions from a child's doctors or therapists, as well as the caregivers. The plans also include a detailed narrative of the initial injury and diagnosis. They explain the underlying causes of the disability as well as its long-term effects.

A medical malpractice attorney should work with a life-care planner to develop the most effective plan for their client's situation. The plan's goal is to ensure your child is compensated enough to cover their future expenses and care. The money is usually placed into a special-needs trust, which is overseen by a licensed administrator. Typically, the amount of funds allotted will be re-adjusted periodically to meet the changing needs of your child's needs.

Pain and Suffering

In a birth injury lawsuit, damages are awarded for the plaintiff's future and past pain and suffering. This includes the physical and mental pain caused by the injury, as also the inability to take part in activities that others can do.

It is also possible to recover income when a victim's injury hinders their professional options or prevents them from working at all. In addition, families may be compensated if they are required to help care for an injured child.

The verdicts for medical malpractice cases are typically very high as juries are often sympathetic to patients and hold doctors accountable for their actions. Because of this, some hospitals and doctors prefer to settle instead of taking on a trial, which is expensive and stressful for all parties involved.

During the lawsuit lawyers from both sides will collect evidence to support their arguments. They will exchange documents in the course of discovery, which includes taking testimony from witnesses under an oath. In many states, defendants can also ask to see the plaintiff's records.

A successful birth injury lawsuit requires a lawyer with experience in these kinds of cases. A seasoned attorney will analyze the facts of your case, determine if it meets the requirements for a lawsuit and seek out the most favorable settlement for your financial needs.

Punitive Damages

Some medical malpractice lawsuits also include punitive damages, which are designed to communicate a message to discourage future reckless behavior. They can be awarded in cases involving particularly serious negligence or where there was willful misconduct on the part the doctor. They are very rare in the case of birth injuries.

After the attorney has identified appropriate defendants, they have to gather and analyze evidence to back up their claims. They must demonstrate that the injuries caused by the medical professionals were not up to standards of care. The legal team also has to prove the losses that were incurred with the injuries, also known as "damages." These damages can be either economic or non-economic.

Economic losses are figured out by taking into account ongoing treatment costs including long-term care facilities and other services. They could also consider the loss of earnings if the injury has caused one or both parents to leave their jobs.

The legal team will then create a demand form to present to the malpractice insurers. This document will describe the birth injury, its effects on the child and their family and request compensation to cover the costs of these loss. The lawyers will negotiate until a settlement is reached with the medical professionals. During the discovery process, attorneys will exchange information with the other party about their case. This includes depositions of witnesses that are required to testify under oath.
