Erb's
Palsy Settlements: $550,000.00 to $725,000.00 |
| Carol Forte
recently settled 3 Erb's Palsy cases, in amounts ranging from 550,000
to 725,000 dollars. The value of a case in which the injury is an
Erb's Palsy can vary greatly and depends in large part upon the
severity of the injury. Carol has settled such cases for as much
as 1,250,000.00 dollars. In one of the recently settled ones, the
mother was admitted to the hospital to have a caesarian section,
but the doctor covering for the admitting physician decided instead
to attempt a vaginal delivery. During the birth the baby's shoulder
became wedged in place, and the doctor was forced to use several
maneuvers to free the child, injuring the baby's brachial plexus.
Two of the cases recently concluded were against the same South
Jersey obstetrician, who denied doing anything wrong in either case,
but managed to permanently injure the nerves of both of these children,
causing an Erb's Palsy. |
