Leading Miami Lawyer Richard Bo Sharp Lands Top 3 Spot Nationally For Birth Injury MedMal Settlement
The legal prowess of record-setting medical malpractice birth injury lawyer Richard Bo Sharp of noted law firm Mallard & Sharp is no secret. Previously recognized for recovering one of the top 21 personal injury settlements nationally in 2022, Sharp has also recently been listed third on Top Verdict’s top ten list for medical malpractice settlements recovered in the nation last year.
Sharp’s sharp focus: birth injury medical malpractice negligence. The recovery in the case that garnered him a top-three position in winning settlements was a record-setting $12,000,000 in the Federal Tort Claim Action styled HACKING vs. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (Case No.: 2:19-cv-14449-). It is the largest birth injury medical malpractice settlement with the Federal Government in Florida to date and one of the largest Federal birth injury medical malpractice negligence settlements ever recovered nationally. Additionally, the settlement is one of the largest Federal Tort Claim settlements of any kind, and potentially the largest, to ever be recovered for a personal injury action in Florida. The case involved provable acts of medical malpractice negligence committed by a certified nurse midwife who failed to meet the standard of care during a mother’s labor and her baby’s delivery that resulted in catastrophic consequences for both the baby and family.
Sharp, along with law partner Vidian Mallard, have become well noted both in Miami and nationwide for their continual efforts in obtaining justice for individuals and families who are the victims of birth injury medical malpractice negligence, particularly when it occurs during labor and delivery. Their successful cases have involved provable doctor or midwife medical malpractice birth injury negligence that has resulted in devastating brain-related injuries and other physical and mental injuries, including Hypoxic Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE) and cerebral palsy.
