Abstract:
In this chapter, I review the ways in which the courts have handled a number of obstetric cases that have been brought to trial in the last 5 years, and compare the ways in which cases were approached previously. The aim is to draw lessons for the benefit of lawyers, patients, doctors, midwives, expert witnesses, and hospital managers. The increasing complexity of modern obstetric patients, the rising expectations of society, the shortage of experienced staff on labour wards, and unrealistic expectations of some experts all make it difficult for the courts to handle these cases.
