Medical Negligence Case Results in $9M Settlement After Mother and Newborn Deaths
A Chicago law firm secured a $9 million settlement in a wrongful death lawsuit involving the deaths of a mother and her newborn due to medical negligence during delivery. The case was led by Marzella Law on behalf of surviving family members.
The lawsuit alleged multiple critical failures by medical staff, including:
- Inadequate fetal monitoring during labor
- Failure to recognize complications
- Delayed response to the mother's deteriorating condition
These preventable medical errors resulted in the deaths of both the mother, who was in her 30s, and her newborn child shortly after delivery.
"While no amount of money can compensate for the loss of life, we hope this settlement helps the surviving family members heal and move forward," stated Marzella Robin, the firm's founder who led the case.
