Advocating for Victims of Birth Injuries
When a child has cerebral palsy, not only is the financial cost astounding, but so is the emotional impact the condition can have on the entire family. In some cerebral palsy cases the condition is a result of medical malpractice on the part of the doctor, nurse or hospital that took part in the delivery-care process. If your child has cerebral palsy, his or her condition may be due to negligence. Even if you don't recall anything out of the ordinary, mistakes may have been made. Let experts who have been investigating these types of cases for years examine your case. You may have a birth injury action.

Labor Delivery Mistakes: A Cause of Cerebral Palsy
Cerebral palsy requires a lifetime of medical bills, rehabilitation and care costs. Although you may not have considered that the physician was at fault for your child's condition, there are many signs that point to possible negligence:
- Low birth weight
- Bleeding near the time of birth
- Emergency cesarean section
- Fetal heart rate abnormalities
- Low Apgar score
- Extended period of delivery time
- Bruising around infant's head
- Vacuum extraction
- Use of forceps
- Admission to NICU
The bottom line is this: even if you have no recollection of anything going wrong or being out of the ordinary, there still could have been negligence. Do not assume your doctor acted without any fault. Our attorneys are here to investigate the facts and determine if your case is actionable.
