Representing Parents of Children Born With Tay-Sachs
Tay-Sachs disease is a fatal genetic disorder typically found in the Ashkenazi Jewish population. Babies born with Tay-Sachs disease become blind, deaf, unable to swallow, and may suffer from seizures and dementia. Parents are now screening for Tay-Sachs early on, in order to avoid having a child who will suffer needlessly and die at a young age.
Nagel Rice, LLP, obtained $3.1 Million in a wrongful birth case involving failure to diagnose Tay-Sachs. Click here to review more wrongful birth/wrongful life verdicts and settlements.
If your child was born with Tay-Sachs disease, you may have a wrongful birth case. Contact Nagel Rice in New Jersey at 973-618-0400 if you believe your child's genetic condition should have been discovered prior to birth.
We are known for our leadership in cutting edge litigation. Our attorneys have helped shape the law through groundbreaking medical malpractice work and wrongful birth cases.
