Doctor Accidentally Amputates Newborn Toe
Jeff Boyd represented an infant and her family who was being delivered by local doctor. In the process of cutting the umbilical cord, the doctor somehow managed to amputate the little girl’s toe. The toe was then lost and therefore unable to be reattached. She underwent immediate surgery to remove a remaining portion of the toe. She has fully recovered and is expected to not have any lasting physical problems. In trial we obtained an $83,000 verdict for our client. Hill-Boren asked the court to order a structured settlement on behalf of the client, which will result in that verdict paying out close to $195,000 over the life of the structure, guaranteed.
