Birth Injuries

A birth injury, caused by the negligence of a doctor, nurse or hospital, is a shocking and terrible occurrence. Although some birth injuries are minor and will heal on their own over time, other injuries are severe and can result in brain injury, paralysis, or even cerebral palsy, a condition that results in the permanent loss of movement or nerve function. If you have experienced a complicated childbirth that resulted in the injury or death of your child, you may be eligible to receive compensation for medical expenses and emotional trauma. Your case can also help to make sure it does not happen to someone else’s child.

Common injuries during birth include:

• Head trauma
• Respiratory infection
• Paralysis
• Bone fractures
• Bleeding between the skull and scalp
• Brain damage
• Oxygen deficiency leading to autism, epilepsy or mental retardation

Bringing a child into the world is a beautiful moment that can be tainted when a doctor or nurse does not make the right decision regarding your and your baby’s care. A complicated pregnancy or childbirth is no reason for your baby to suffer from injury when the doctor could have prevented it.
