Lawsuit Alleges Failure to Promptly Treat Fast-Growing Abdominal Cyst Resulted in Newborn’s Death

A wrongful death lawsuit alleges medical negligence cause the death of a newborn.

The lawsuit stems from the 2016 death of a newborn baby. The suit alleges that a doctor failed to promptly take appropriate action when a fast-growing cyst was detected in during a pre-birth ultrasound.

The baby underwent bowel surgery after birth, but was only two days old when she died. The lawsuit says the baby would have survived if the Nebraska doctor had ordered an immediate evaluation of the growth in her bowel and had sent her for treatment before she was given any food.

To meet pressing financial obligations during the pending lawsuit, the family may wish to apply for litigation funding. Unlike a traditional bank loan, this type of cash advance can be provided without obstacles or risks.

Litigation funding is based solely on case strength, not credit or employment status. If the case is reviewed and appears to be winnable, the request for funding will likely be approved with the money available within 24 – 48 hours. Repayment only occurs once the case successfully settles, at which time we are repaid from the case proceeds. However, if the case is lost, we will completely waive repayment of the case advance.

While litigation funding cannot solve physical and emotional issues, a lawsuit cash advance can substantially lessen financial issues. If you have filed, or plan to file, a medical malpractice lawsuit and are represented by an attorney, you may be eligible for medical malpractice litigation funding. The application process is quick and easy online or by calling Litigation Funding Corporation toll-free at 1-866-LITFUND. We are also happy to offer a free, no-obligation consultation or funding analysis of your case.
