$6 Million settlement in baby case a Bay State record

Frederic N Halstrom

Case Conclusion Date: March 1, 2008

Practice Area: Birth Injury

Outcome: $6 Million Settlement

Description: My clients contacted me after their Worcester area OB/GYN failed to perform a c-section in a timely manner and caused permanent brain injury to their son, J. J suffered needless birth trauma because of the doctors and nurses negligence and will need special care for the rest of his life. I was able to settle this case 1 week prior to trial for $6 million, a Massachusetts record for a pre-trial settlement. This money guarantees J will never need to become a ward of the state and that he can afford the care he will need.
