Throughout a woman’s pregnancy, a doctor performs routine tests and screens to check for any abnormalities or potential problems. If any issues are detected that relate to the health, well-being and viability of either the mother or fetus, swift action must be taken with regard to proper treatment or intervention. When medical negligence leads to tragic outcomes, a fetal death lawyer can help families understand their legal options and pursue justice.
In cases where a mother is 20 or more weeks pregnant and loses a baby, serious questions must be asked, investigated and answered with regard to what happened and who may be at fault. At Gash & Associates, P.C., our lawyers provide compassionate representation and fierce advocacy to parents and families who have suffered the unbearable loss of an unborn child. An experienced fetal demise attorney can help determine liability, and when appropriate, pursue a miscarriage lawsuit to seek justice and accountability.
There are several maternal and fetal conditions that increase the risk of fetal trauma or demise, and in some cases, families may have grounds for a miscarriage lawsuit if proper medical care was not provided.
In the mother, risk factors include:
In a fetus, the risk of death increases when one or more of the following conditions are present:
If a doctor fails to diagnose or misdiagnoses any of these health conditions or concerns and a fetal death occurs, our fetal death lawyer will take swift legal action to uncover these oversights, identify medical errors, and pursue accountability on your behalf.
