MEDICAL MALPRACTICE: FERTILITY As technology and science continue to advance, many individuals and couples are turning to fertility specialists for help creating the families they have always dreamed of having. Unfortunately, as with other medical fields, fertility is far from error-proof. Misdiagnosis of infertility and its causes is not uncommon, causing much anxiety and in some cases, physical injury. Similarly, physicians may prescribe the wrong medications or courses of treatment for those suffering from infertility. Finally, there have been cases of fertility clinics implanting the wrong embryos into their patients, using sperm or eggs from the wrong donors, and failing to test biological materials for sexually transmitted diseases.
If you have been a victim of negligent care related to infertility, family planning or conception, it is crucial to consult with a medical malpractice attorney as soon as possible. Numerous parties could be responsible for a medical error or errors, including physicians, OB-GYNs, fertility clinics and other medical providers. Our experienced personal injury lawyers can help you secure all of the compensation to which you may be entitled. This may include compensation for pain and suffering, financial loss, emotional distress and past, current and future medical expenses. In some cases, you may also be entitled to punitive damages for another party’s wrongdoing. Our dedicated trial lawyers can also help you deal with your insurance company, as well as the insurer of the other party or parties. The insurance companies have lawyers working hard to minimize their payouts; you need a medical malpractice attorney who will work just as hard for you.
