Personal Injury and Medical Malpractice Lawyers

In recent years, insurance companies, medical industry lobbyists, product manufacturers and others have spent significant amounts of time and money in an effort to tip the scales of justice against accident and personal injury victims.

The Chicago medical malpractice lawyers at our firm played an integral role towards an Illinois Supreme Court ruling in February 2010 regarding Medical Malpractice Caps being declared unconstitutional. This ruling stems from the case of a 4½-year-old who sustained injuries at birth, which resulted in cerebral palsy.

Case Results

An expectant mother presented at her hospital in Chicago for the delivery of her first child. Her physician was not present and the hospital's "house doctor", who had not been formally trained in obstetrics, was managing the labor with attending nurses. By the time the personal physician arrived the fetus had suffered a significant lack of oxygen and was delivered in a very depressed state. The baby developed cerebral palsy. On the eve of trial, the hospital and other defendants offered a global settlement with a present cash value in excess of $13,000,000.00 including some portions in cash and future payments that will support the child for life.
