Georgia Hospital Sued for Wrongful Death of Three Babies

Wrongful death refers to a claim by a plaintiff (not the victim) who seeks to recover damages for the unjust death of another caused by someone’s negligent, reckless or intentional acts. There are no specific guidelines that dictate the means of death; however, wrongful death tort claims frequently occur in several circumstances:
  • Medical malpractice, especially errors in surgery, diagnosis and/or prescriptions;
  • Product defects;
  • Automobile accidents, including truck and pedestrian accidents;
  • Criminal acts such as murder, physical abuse or neglect.

Clayton County wrongful death lawyer Shane Smith represents families who have lost loved ones in auto accidents, truck accidents, DUI accidents, pedestrian accidents or serious premises liability accidents.

According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, a wrongful death suit alleges that negligent medical care at South Fulton Medical Center caused three babies to die either shortly before or after they were delivered. The suits assert that doctors and other healthcare providers failed to recognize early labor in one case, unnecessarily delayed a cesarean delivery in another and failed to recognize fetal distress for a baby who was born brain dead.

If a death is caused by the negligence of another then the decedent’s family may be entitled to legal relief through a wrongful death lawsuit. You should hire an experienced Clayton County wrongful death attorney if you will file a lawsuit on behalf of a family member who died due to another’s negligence.
