Medical Malpractice / Birth Injuries
Patients rely on medical professionals to make the right decisions, to anticipate problems, and to adhere to a certain standard of care. If you or someone you know has been injured by a negligent physician, nurse, surgeon, or other medical professional, Hopkins & Kopilow can help. Our firm represents adults, children, and newborns who are injured through medical malpractice and we are particularly adept in the area of birth injuries, addressing the long-term issues of brain injured newborns.
Smart decisions need to be made during prenatal care and throughout labor and delivery. When something is overlooked, such as oxygen to the fetus, a baby that would have otherwise been born healthy can be injured for life. Parents are understandably devastated during this time. Cerebral palsy and other brain injuries can have varying affects on babies. Some children may develop relatively normally; others may never be able to crawl, walk, or talk.
Our firm is very alert to the special needs of a baby who suffered a birth injury. We seek full compensation that will provide for your baby throughout all stages of his or her life. This includes helping your child qualify for special needs trusts. Our firm is also highly skilled at obtaining settlements that do not compromise your child’s qualification for governmental assistance.
Our firm has a history of success in obtaining substantial and impressive outcomes for our injured clients.
