Can I sued my obgyn if im pregnant again after getting my tubes ties twice in one year

You should immediately consult with a personal injury attorney in your area who handles medical malpractice cases. Most personal injury attorneys offer a free legal consultation and I suggest you take advantage of the service. Do not delay in retaining an attorney, as many times the statute of limitations for bringing a medical malpractice action is shorter than for other types of actions.

I am not licensed in GA, but I agree that you should consult a local lawyer. Often in cases like yours there are jurors who would feel strongly about a "wrongful life" case. Your damages are the costs associated with raising the children and the emotion of your situation. However, in your case you may have two potential defendants. Contact Tommy Malone in Georgia.

You shouold consult with a Georgia medical malpractice lawyer. Georgia recognizes a medical malpractice claim for wrongful pregnancy caused by negligent sterilization. In this type of medical malpractice case, damages that you may be entitled to recover for include the expenses for the unsuccessful medical procedure which led to the pregnancy, pain and suffering, medical complications, costs of delivery, lost wages, and loss of consortium. However, amounts for the cost of raising a child cannot be recovered.

Best of luck to you,
