Question

Can a grandparent bring legal action against a hospital for grandchild injury? Also, can grandparent bring legal action against parent that not supporting child. Grandchild lives with grandmother and mother. Somthing happend to child after birth. Child was healthy and over due. I am not sure if my child understands that she is going to be financially strapped trying to take care of my grandson. I heard too many excuses that don't make sense why this child is going to have developmental issues.

Thanks for your question.Yes you could bring such a lawsuit.The court might appoint you as legal guardian to pursue it.You will need a personal injury lawyer.They will take this on contingency which means you don't pay until there is recovery.You should certainly do this as the child will need the funds here for therapy and other medical assistance in the future.I wish you good luck here and sympathy for the situation
