Dedicated to Protecting Families
It’s no secret that having a child can be one of the most stressful times in a person’s life. Whether it’s your first, third, or fifth, dealing with all the variables of having a child is never easy. During pregnancy, there is already enough stress even when everything goes smoothly. But what happens when the doctor is negligent?
Getting the Settlement You Deserve
In many cases of birth injury, the unfortunate reality is that no amount of financial compensation can truly make up for the level of malpractice experienced. When deliveries are mishandled and life-threatening injuries are sustained, there’s more on the line. At DeZao & DeZao, P.C., we take this malpractice seriously. We understand the fear and pain this can place on you as parents, and we work diligently to ensure you receive not only the highest level of compensation but also the support you need.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Should I Do if I Suspect a Birth Injury?
If you suspect your child has suffered a birth injury, it is crucial to act promptly. Begin by obtaining and reviewing all relevant medical records to understand the circumstances surrounding the birth. Consider keeping a detailed log of your child's health, medical visits, and any treatment they receive. Consulting with a knowledgeable birth injury lawyer in New Jersey is a crucial step, as they can provide valuable insights into whether medical negligence may have played a role and what legal remedies may be available. At DeZao & DeZao, P.C., our team offers a free initial consultation to help guide you through this challenging time.
How is Compensation Calculated in Birth Injury Cases?
Compensation in birth injury cases is intended to cover a variety of needs arising from the injury. This may include medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, necessary accommodations, and ongoing care. Additionally, compensation may account for non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering. The specific circumstances of each case will determine the total compensation sought. Our team ensures that every aspect of your child's needs is considered when pursuing a settlement or trial judgment, providing comprehensive support and advocacy throughout the process.
What Legal Deadlines Should I Be Aware of in New Jersey?
In New Jersey, the statute of limitations for filing a medical malpractice lawsuit involving a birth injury is generally two years from the date the injury was discovered. However, there can be exceptions, such as for minors, where the timeframe may be extended. It is crucial to seek legal advice promptly to avoid missing critical deadlines that could affect your ability to pursue a claim. At DeZao & DeZao, P.C., we help ensure you understand all applicable timelines and procedures, positioning your case for success.
