Russ Berkowitz and Kelly Ferraro have settled a medical malpractice wrongful death action on behalf of the estate of a full term baby boy who was born not breathing and subsequently died a few hours later following the failure of a nurse midwife, student nurse midwife, and a nurse at from a birthing center to timely diagnose that our client was in fetal distress during the labor period and timely transfer our client’s mother to a hospital for an emergency c-section. Thanks go out to Mackenzie Miska for her behind the scenes work on this sad case.
The terms of the settlement are confidential.
