Seeking Claims For Childbirth Death

More than six years after his wife died while giving birth to their son, a Singaporean man obtained new medical records that suggested her death could have been due to negligent medical treatment. He launched a legal suit to seek dependency claims for his wife’s obstetrician.

Sharon Palani had previously discussed a similar case with Dr George Lee in 2015 about a boy who was left permanently disabled during birth.
