Record Breaking Medical Malpractice Verdicts
In one case, The Beasley Firm secured the largest medical malpractice verdict in Pennsylvania history, involving an adult heart surgeon practicing on a newborn who required a relatively simple heart procedure. The surgeon was unfamiliar with the anatomy of a premature child, causing the infant to sustain brain damage and arm amputation.
In another case, within weeks of a separate $100 million medical malpractice verdict, The Beasley Philadelphia medical malpractice firm obtained the second largest medical malpractice verdict in history in the amount of $55 million. This was a case tried against world famous physician William Norwood, M.D., who performed an unauthorized surgical procedure on Steven Gault, rendering him severely brain damaged and in permanent need of life long care.
Successful Case Results: Protecting Those Who Have Been Wronged
In another Philadelphia malpractice case tried for six weeks on behalf of a brain-injured child, the jury awarded $37 million to The Beasley Firm Philadelphia medical malpractice lawyers after they were successfully able to prove that obstetrical negligence caused a mother to deliver a premature baby. In this particular case, after the baby's delivery, another doctor cared for the newborn in the delivery room and misplaced a breathing tube intended for the baby's airway. This tube was inserted directly into the esophagus, causing prolonged oxygen deprivation and severe, permanent brain damage.
