Our law firm handles birth injury cases all over the country. We recently picked up a new case in Minnesota.  I think we can really help this child and this family.

In every state, we research the law and talk to local counsel. When our lawyers take a Minnesota birth injury case, we hire local lawyers in Minnesota to help. Does that cost the client more?  It does not.  It comes out of our fee when the case settles.  So families get two lawyers for the price of one.

I thought it would be a good idea to publish our research. If others had put their research online, it would have made our job a lot easier.

How fast am I driving?

The one thing defendants (and plaintiffs, for that matter) consistently screw up at deposition is time, speed, and distance calculations. They don’t know how fast they are driving and, if they do, they don’t screw it up with their time distance calculation.

What Are Birth Injuries?

When a baby suffers some type of physical damage during the process of labor and delivery it is considered a birth injury. Childbirth is a notoriously difficult process for mother and baby and some birth injuries are a natural and unavoidable consequence of this. In many instances, however, a birth injury is something that could have easily been prevented and are the direct result of negligent medical care during labor and delivery. Some of the more common medical mistakes that cause birth injuries include:

A birth injury refers to physical damage to an infant resulting not from something that happens during the labor and delivery process. A large percentage of birth injuries are caused by avoidable mistakes or negligence by health care providers. Although some birth injuries can be minor, others can result in permanent disabilities, affecting the child’s cognitive and/or physical function. West Virginia recognizes the right of parents to obtain legal compensation when their child suffers a birth injury caused by medical negligence.

If you are having a hard time contemplating how “unauthorized penis surgery” can happen, you are not alone. I had the same reaction when I first saw the headline about this case. But as explained below, unauthorized penis surgery is something that actually happened to a man in California and he got a malpractice award of $9 million.

Before getting into the details of the case, it is worth noting here that California caps damages for pain & suffering in malpractice cases at $250,000. This is one of the strictest caps on damages in the entire country, but it didn’t prevent the plaintiff in this case from getting a big award for what happened to this penis.

This post is about this case but also provides settlement and verdicts in penis injury medical malpractice cases.

TriStar electric pressure cookers have a design flaw that sometimes allows the device to pressurize without the locked lid. This defect causes the lid to explode when opened and projects scalding hot liquids over anyone nearby.

Users have suffered severe burns and facial disfigurement due to the lid defect.  These injuries are awful to deal with and they did not have to happen.

Our firm is seeking new product liability cases from anyone seriously injured by a faulty TriStar pressure cooker device. Users who suffered burns or other injuries from their TriStar instant pressure cooker may be entitled to financial compensation.
