NEONATAL MALPRACTICE LAWYER
THE DUTY OF CARE IS VERY HIGH
Nobody is more vulnerable than a newborn baby, so there is an expectation that physicians and nurse’s caring for them will do so with the utmost diligence. When a doctor or nurse fails to use the proper standard of care or fails to properly identify and treat neonatal problems, the doctor, nurse, and hospital can be held liable for the injuries to the child. A neonatal malpractice lawyer can represent you in an action to collect compensation.
The minutes immediately following a birth are crucial, as decisions may need to be made that may determine whether the baby will grow up healthy or suffer from a serious long-term disability. That’s why an attending neonatologist or pediatrician must vigilantly monitor your baby so that any warning signs for complications can be acted on immediately. If a baby is in distress, the response must be prompt.
WHY MISTAKES USUALLY HAPPEN
Today’s hospitals are budget conscious and sometimes understaffed, making it difficult to give each newborn in a neonatal unit the proper attention. Another problem is when pediatricians that are not trained in neonatal care are responsible for the unit and do not know how to give the proper care. Nurse’s without proper training can overlook the symptoms of an impending critical problem, so it is not treated as soon as possible, causing serious permanent injuries. A neonatal malpractice lawyer can investigate the circumstances and determine whether malpractice has occurred.
SOME NEONATAL ISSUES TO LOOK OUT FOR
One of the most serious problems are breathing issues or respiratory distress that might require immediate oxygen or even intubation. Infections acquired from the mother may require intravenous antibiotics before the infection induces a high fever. Circulatory problems that may be caused by a heart problem that requires immediate surgery. Brain dysfunction caused by a deficiency of oxygen or a brain perfusion must be treated immediately. Jaundice, while not as severe, will benefit from rapid treatment as well.

Introducing Project 2029
Project 2029 began as a deliberate shift in how I use imagination. More than thirty-five years ago, I made dystopian films that imagined political and social futures shaped by fear, institutional failure, and concentration of power. At the time, those futures felt exaggerated—useful as warnings, but safely distant from reality. Over time, many of the conditions those films explored stopped feeling speculative and began to feel familiar. That experience changed how I think about storytelling and political imagination. If dystopian futures can move from fiction into lived experience, then imagination is not neutral. It shapes what people expect, accept, and resign themselves to. Project 2029 is a conscious decision to move in the opposite direction—to [...]
The Accident Was Minor. The Injury Was Not. Why Low-Impact Car Crashes Still Cause Serious Harm
People tend to describe car accidents using the language of property damage. The car wasn’t totaled. The bumper barely dented. The airbags didn’t deploy. Everyone walked away. And yet, weeks later, the pain arrives. This disconnect—between what a crash looked like and what it did—is one of the most common and most misunderstood issues in New York car accident cases. It is also one of the most aggressively exploited by insurance companies. In Queens, where traffic is dense, speeds are inconsistent, and collisions often occur in close quarters, many crashes fall into the category insurers like to call “minor impact.” The phrase sounds scientific. It isn’t. It’s a financial label, not a medical one. Vehicle Damage [...]
Gravity: CEO Politics
Before Donald Trump turned American politics into corporate spectacle, No Such Thing as Gravity predicted exactly that world: a CEO-in-chief who governs like a brand manager and treats the country like a company. Policies become product launches. Truth becomes marketing copy. Leadership becomes performance. The film’s portrayal of a profit-obsessed leader is disturbingly familiar. Decisions that affect millions are reframed as business calculations. Human lives become numbers on a spreadsheet. This collapse of morality into metrics is the film’s most chilling insight — and its most prophetic. See this prescient political satire at the Spectacle Theater in Brooklyn, part of the Multiple Futures trilogy.
Betaville: Comedy of Capitalism
Most dystopias are grim. Betaville is bright, loud, absurd — and that’s what makes it devastating. Instead of showing us a dark authoritarian future, it reveals the ridiculousness of our own world by pushing capitalist culture to its comedic breaking point. The film’s exaggerated fashion, extravagant characters, and relentless pursuit of trendiness showcase the ways in which capitalism creates arbitrary hierarchies. People compete not for survival, but for relevance. Success isn’t measured in ethics or intelligence, but in visibility—a concept more relevant now than ever in the influencer age. Why does the comedy hurt? Because it’s true. The film exposes the irrationality of capitalist systems that prey on insecurity, reward superficiality, and punish nonconformity. In [...]
