Below are links that will take you to the various sections of Florida's Birth-Related Neurological Injury Compensation Act. This is the year 2006 version of the statute, and it is offered for general information purposes.  This statute should not be relied on without reviewing your legal situation with an experienced medical malpractice lawyer, and making sure you are using the appropriate version of the relevant statute for your case.  The provisions applicable to your potential claim may or may not be the version that was in effect at the time of the child's birth, because some changes to the statute have been made retroactive, and other changes have not.  Other statutes and other case law interpreting or applying these statutes may also apply to your case.
