In this medical malpractice article for Lopez McHugh Attorney’s Donald Dinnie, CEO of Natmed Medical Defense discusses how doctors, often play a role in infant injuries during the birthing process. Obstetricians tend to have some of the highest medical negligence insurance premiums for a number of reasons — including the fact that claims relating to babies can potentially be brought long after the injury is suffered. For example, even if the parent of the child didn’t bring the claim at the time of the injury, the child could bring the claim on his or her own behalf when they reach the age of majority,” Dinnie says.
