Birth Injury

## $3 Million For Failure To Diagnose Infection

Compensation

$3 Million

In one recent case, we represented the family of a child born with spina bifida, a debilitating condition affecting his spine. When he had surgery to correct the problem, his doctors promised that he would walk and run and play like any other child. But after surgery, he developed an infection that his [doctors did not diagnose](https://www.fuchsberg.com/medical-malpractice/medical-misdiagnosis) until it was too late. He was left paralyzed from the waist down. We were able to obtain a $3 million settlement for his family that provided for all of his future needs.
