The vast majority of deliveries result in healthy babies, however, when serious emergencies like shoulder dystocia occur, the consequences can be life-changing for both mother and child.

Shoulder dystocia is a birth complication that occurs when a baby's shoulder becomes lodged behind the mother's pelvis during delivery. When medical providers fail to recognize risk factors, properly prepare for delivery, or respond appropriately during an emergency, serious injuries can occur, including brachial plexus injuries, Erb's palsy, fractures, and oxygen deprivation.

Parents place their trust in healthcare professionals during one of life's most important moments. When that trust is broken by negligence, families deserve answers and accountability.

If your child suffered a birth injury related to shoulder dystocia, the experienced medical malpractice attorneys at Friedman Schuman Layser, PC can help you understand your legal rights and options.

Friedman Schuman Layser, PC is proud to share that Melissa Paris Miller was invited to speak on a panel at Angeion Group’s Mega Summit last week, where she offered the unique perspective of a plaintiff medical malpractice attorney alongside attorneys who handle mass tort and class action litigation.

While medical malpractice cases often involve a single injured patient rather than a large group of claimants, many of the challenges are the same, especially when it comes to managing and analyzing vast amounts of information. Melissa discussed the importance of transforming pages of records into meaningful insights while maintaining strict standards for HIPAA compliance, data security, and client privacy.

As technology and AI continue to reshape the legal industry, attorneys across practice areas share a common goal: using information safely, efficiently, and effectively to make better decisions and achieve the best possible outcomes for their clients.

Congratulations to Melissa on this opportunity to share her knowledge and experience with fellow legal professionals! 🎉

💡Did you know...leaving an inheritance to a loved one with disabilities requires careful planning. A Special Needs Trust can provide financial resources for things that enrich a beneficiary's daily life without putting certain government benefits at risk.

A Special Needs Trust may help pay for:

🔹 Educational opportunities
🔹 Assistive devices and technology
🔹 Transportation needs
🔹 Recreational activities
🔹 Therapies and specialized services
🔹 Personal care support

With the right estate plan in place, families can help protect both their loved one's quality of life and access to essential benefits.

May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month, a reminder of the importance of early detection, regular skin checks, and timely medical care. ☀️🧴🏖️ Skin cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer, and when diagnosed early, treatment is often highly successful.

Unfortunately, delayed diagnoses, missed warning signs, or failure to properly evaluate suspicious lesions can allow skin cancer to progress and lead to serious, life-altering consequences for patients and their families.

At Friedman Schuman Layser, our medical malpractice team understands the devastating impact that delayed or missed diagnoses can have. We are committed to advocating for patients who have suffered harm due to medical negligence and helping them pursue the answers and accountability they deserve.

This Skin Cancer Awareness Month, take time to protect your skin, schedule routine screenings, and never ignore changes that may require medical attention. Early action can save lives. ☀️
