A: What a horrible experience. I'm sorry you had to go through that. You should call a lawyer who represents clients in medical malpractice cases. There are several firms in Colorado who specialize in that area of law. You might try contacting Cornell Johnson, Mac Hester, Jim Puga, Hollynd Hoskins, Thomas Tomazin, or David Woodruff. But there are also many other medical negligence lawyers around who might be able to help. Good luck and I hope you and your baby are both well.
