MEDICAL MALPRACTICE
$35-million verdict for brain-damaged Florida child

June 13, 2008 – Besides the trust that your healthcare provider betrayed, medical malpractice situations also yield exorbitant medical costs, lost employment, and inestimable pain and suffering. Frequently, only a lawyer can correct the situation.

One family in Florida took action in just this kind of situation.

A court jury awarded a South Florida family $35 million today in a medical malpractice lawsuit that found a local medical center responsible for causing brain damage to their child during birth. The verdict means that they will now be able to afford a van with a wheelchair lift and home attendants for round-the-clock care, according to a family spokesman.
