PREGANCY RELATED FATALITIES CAUSED BY MEDICAL MALPRACTICE

CAUSES OF MATERNAL & INFANT WRONGFUL DEATH

The loss of life during childbirth is rare here in the United States. In some cases, it can be attributed to a doctor or other medical professional’s failure to provide treatment in accordance with currently accepted standards. We can talk to you about what occurred and can review medical records to determine whether your loss could have been prevented – and we can take legal action against the responsible party or parties.

Common causes of infant and mother wrongful death:

• Prolonged labor or delivery

• Delayed C-section

• Oxygen deprivation during labor or delivery

• Failure to recognize fetal distress

• Delayed response to fetal distress

• Untreated jaundice and kernicterus

• Preeclampsia

• Placenta Previa or abruption
