Wicomico County Jury Awards $2M

Two million dollar settlement for family after sepsis & Death of Infant

Case Facts: A Wicomico County jury awarded $2,000,000.00 to the parents of a 19-day old infant whose pediatrician failed to personally examine him after his parents complained of a week-long history of severe vomiting & diarrhea. The pediatrician also failed to suggest that the parents take their child to the emergency room. Instead, the pediatrician assured the parents that their child was suffering from an allergy to formula and suggested that the parents were over-reacting. The 19-day old was eventually taken to the emergency room but died the next day of an overwhelming infection called sepsis.
