Over the past 25 years, our firm has pioneered the field of wrongful birth and wrongful life. This area of law involves the failure to provide proper prenatal testing and care which results in the birth of a child with serious birth defects. Our medical malpractice attorneys are widely recognized as leaders in the field of law, and have achieved some of the most significant settlements and verdicts in New Jersey. We have handled cases involving the failure to diagnose genetic diseases including Tay-Sachs, Canavans Disease, Neimann-Pick, Downs Syndrome, Spina-Bifida, as well as cases involving negligently read ultrasounds resulting in fetal abnormalities including hypoplastic heart, limb defects, and hydrocephalus. Among our settlements and verdicts are: a $4.2 million settlement involving a negligent ultrasound, a $3.1 million settlement involving the failure to test for Tay-Sachs, a $2.7 million settlement involving a negligent ultrasound, a $2.6 million settlement involving a negligent ultrasound, a $2.5 settlement involving the failure to test for Canavans Disease, and a $2 million settlement involving negligent Tay-Sachs testing.
