Pediatric Meningitis Malpractice Lawsuits
If your child has suffered harm due to pediatric meningitis, you may have the right to seek justice from health care providers that have failed to diagnose or adequately treat the condition. Pediatric meningitis is a leading cause of death in young children, and medical professions who care for kids are trained to meet accepted standards when evaluating for and identifying potential meningitis.

- We’ve broken the record for largest malpractice recovery in CA twice since 2018.

Diagnosing and Treating Pediatric Meningitis
If pediatric meningitis is not diagnosed quickly, children can suffer nerve damage and brain injuries leading to long-term physical or mental disabilities, or the tragic loss of life.
If your child was ill and your doctor or pediatrician failed to recognize that they were suffering from this debilitating disease, it is important that you contact an experienced lawyer to investigate what happened and whether your provider deviated from the accepted standard of care.
We know how difficult and emotional it is for parents facing these tragic consequences, and we can assist you to pursue compensation to care for your child and address their needs, as well as the pain and suffering that is a tragic aspect of any disability.
