Autism Lawyers - Autism Lawsuit  

Contact Fitzgerald & Fitzgerald if you want us to help you find out why your child has autism.  If medical malpractice or environmental toxins are involved, Fitzgerald & Fitzgerald will seek compensation for your child:

1. $3,250,000 – Fitzgerald & Fitzgerald lawyers successfully argued that the hospital where their client was born mismanaged labor and delivery (hospital malpractice).  Hypoxic ischemia (oxygen deprivation) resulted in brain damage and ADHD.  The child was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (Case # 02078).
2. $1,580,000 – Fitzgerald & Fitzgerald successfully argued that their young client’s autism spectrum disorder was caused by lead ingestion and that 1) the landlord negligently failed to paint over old, lead-based paint and 2) a hospital negligently failed to test for lead levels until the child was two years of age (Case # 02004).   
3. $445,000 – Fitzgerald & Fitzgerald successfully argued that a New York hospital failed to diagnose and treat high bilirubin levels (jaundice), which caused the firm’s young client’s autism (Case # 87235).

Autism Birth Injury – Investigation by Autism Lawyers

If your child has been diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder or you suspect your child has an autism spectrum disorder, and you retain Fitzgerald & Fitzgerald, we will:

• Undertake an intense investigation of the medical and environmental history of your child
• Search for environmental and neurological insults that might have caused the autism spectrum disorder
• Consult with pediatric neurologists, toxicologists, and environmental experts
• Attempt to identify the cause and time of the injury to your child’s brain
• If that injury could have been avoided, we will seek to recover compensation from the parties responsible for the injury, which may include landlords, property owners, and medical care providers
