How does Gluckstein establish negligence in a newborn infection medical malpractice case?

For a newborn infection medical malpractice claim to be successful, a personal injury lawyer must establish that standards of care have been breached, that the breach directly caused serious harm to a person, and that another person's negligent action or inaction caused this harm.

To establish negligence, we conduct a preliminary investigation into a client's medical files to determine when and how the infection started, how long it took to identify it, and how it was treated once identified. We also consult medical experts and birth injury lawyers who can provide an opinion about whether it is reasonable to think a doctor with a similar level of experience under similar circumstances would have made the same choices based on protocols in place.

If you believe your newborn suffered harm due to a missed or mistreated infection, contact us for a free consultation. Our services are available with no upfront fees, on a contingency fee basis.

What is the birth injury kernicterus (brain injury) from hyperbilirubinemia - jaundice?

As a body breaks down old red blood cells, it creates a yellow pigment called bilirubin that is processed by the liver prior to excretion. Some newborns have underdeveloped livers that cannot process this waste efficiently. If there is a delay or disruption in this process, bilirubin that builds up in the body may begin to collect in brain tissue and cause serious and permanent brain damage (bilirubin encephalopathy).
