Defense Verdict In Medical Malpractice Case Involving Death Of Newborn Child
|
|
Stacy Fulco was part of the defense team that won at trial in DuPage County in a medical malpractice case that involved the death of a newborn child. The plaintiff was pregnant and incarcerated and claimed that she experienced pain throughout the day, but this claim was disputed. She was examined at the end of the day and it was discovered that she was bleeding and in pain. The plaintiff was immediately transferred to the hospital where it was discovered that she was suffering from placental abruption. This resulted in a significant lack of oxygen to the baby and the baby died. The jury found in favor of Stacy’s client, the medical staff at the facility, and that her client acted timely and appropriately.
