I recommend shriners hospitals for crippled children. They are good, and free. They have helped me in the past.
I believe there is one in tampa.
Yes she needs evaluated but you dont know what it is yet. a problem with the growthplate, hip dysplasia, who knows.
I dont see why you need a good lawyer unless the doctor did something to cause this problem or make it worse

How much difference is there between the length of her legs? It is perfectly normal for one leg to be slightly shorter than the other. That's why people can't walk a straight line in a snow storm. Be careful of doctors offering surgery. They might just need the next payment for their Mercedes.

you need to go to the Nemours Childrens Clinic in Pensacola. In Sacred Heart Hospital. It has the best doctors in the country.

I saw a documentary on people getting there legs stretched to be taller. I see no reason why that couldn't be applied to one leg. There is a limitation how far they can stretch it and it requires braces and is painful.

You need to get her another evaluation by a different doctor. It is very important..because she might have trouble crawling and walking.

Congenital hip displasia. It is treated with bracing/surgery.
Mostly bracing. I am in AZ, so I can't recommend anyone.
All the best to you'll.
