Holding Doctors and Hospitals Accountable for Negligent Care
The brain is one of the most vital organs in the human body. Brain damage is often irreversible and frequently results in long-term or permanent coma. Doctors and hospitals deserve to be held accountable when their inadequate medical treatment results in brain damage.
I am Irwin E. Weiss, an experienced Baltimore brain damage attorney serving clients throughout Maryland. I frequently help patients who have suffered brain damage, and their families, pursue medical malpractice claims in circumstances such as the following:
- Stroke: When someone is having a stroke, every moment that person goes untreated due to misdiagnosis can result in additional brain damage. A medication called TPA can dramatically reduce permanent brain damage, but only if it is administered in time.
- Subdural hematoma: A serious fall or other head trauma can result in a subdural hematoma, an emergency medical condition that can cause serious brain damage and put the patient in a coma if it is not diagnosed and treated promptly.
- Cerebral palsy: While there are many potential causes of cerebral palsy, the evidence suggests that a substantial number of children develop this condition as a result of brain damage caused by hypoxia (oxygen deprivation) during labor and delivery.
If someone close to you has fallen into a coma or suffered other permanent brain damage as a result of medical malpractice, you need an experienced lawyer to help you pursue the compensation you deserve. I have helped many clients pursue coma and brain damage claims.
