Khalil Saddler went to the Cleveland Clinic in 2003 as a newborn to have an abnormal vein at the base of his brain repaired. The vein was causing an excessive flow of blood to his heart. During the surgery the doctors used an instrument on Khalil which specified that it should only be used on adults. The surgeons did not have special permission from the parents to do this, even though according to Ohio law it was necessary.

The wrongful death complaint filed by Khalil’s mother states that the doctors were involved in a series of negligent acts including using a surgical device manufactured for adult-use. The use of this led to brain damage, multiple surgeries and his premature death in 2008. Also named in the complaint is that the surgeons not only used the wrong instrument, but they also used the wrong surgical technique and allowed glue from the device to drip into Khalil’s brain causing him to have a massive stroke and bleeding. This left him severely brain damaged.

If the surgeons had used the right instrument and the right technique, Khalil would still be alive and healthy today. Their negligence lead to the death of a little boy. If you have lost a loved one because of the negligence of doctors you need help.

A lawsuit has been filed after a pedestrian bridge collapsed in the Atlanta Botanicals Gardens killing one of the workers helping to build the bridge. The lawsuit is filed against the attraction and several contruction companies and states that the companies failed to protect the workers.

Angel Chupin worked for a subcontractor that poured concrete foundations. The incident happened when they were working on a pedestrain bridge about 40 feet above ground when the path crumbled. Workers fell to the ground from a few dozen feet up. In total 18 workers were injured because of this and 1 was killed. The probable cause of the incident was that two support towers were placed too far away from each other. Osha fined the compaines for other safety violations as well.

These companies have a responsibility to keep the job site and their workers safe. When this does not happen people get hurt and even killed. If this happens a lawsuit should be filed.
