1.2
MILLION DOLLAR SETTLEMENT FOR BIRTH DEFECT INJURY |
| |
Attorney -Dennis
Donnelly
Spring 2003
A child who was born with a Fragile
X Syndrome will receive 1.2 million dollars as part of a settlement
obtained by Dennis Donnelly. Given a history of mental retardation
and autism in the mother's family, the obstetricians providing
prenatal care for the mother failed to order a screening blood
test, recommended by the American College of Obstetrics & Gynecology,
which would have been able to detect the fragile X birth defect.
The boy, who is now six, suffers from developmental delays and
autism, and, requires lifetime care and supervision. |
