Family of Victim Who Died

In a medical malpractice case, our client had pre-term premature rupture of her membranes. Our client was admitted to the hospital for observation. After 4 days, our client developed chorioamnionitis, an infection of the uterine cavity. The client died the next day. It was asserted the physician and hospital were negligent in failing to appropriately counsel the patient and in failing to timely evacuate the uterus and administer antibiotics. This case also settled for well over a million dollars.
