Maryland / DC / Virginia Cerebral Palsy / Medical Malpractice Settlement

Last month a Waynesboro family settled with the University of Virginia Medical Center for $1.35 million in a case that arose from the September 2001 birth of their son.

The family alleged that the treating doctors failed to act in a timely fashion to their son’s condition. The papers stated that the child developed cerebral palsy from being asphyxiated (lack of oxygen) at birth.
