Birth Trauma Attorneys

Child birth is a complex process.
Although most babies are born healthy, 2 to 7 babies in every thousand are injured during the birthing process. Some injuries are due to the baby’s size and position during labor, while other injuries can be caused by maternal complications, such as a small pelvis, narrow birth canal, or a mother’s pre-existing medical condition.

In many cases, birth injuries can be avoided through careful, reactive treatment from doctors and nurses.  But in some unfortunate circumstances, the medical treaters make a mistake that will cause significant injury to the baby.  We’ve observed medical errors requiring anywhere from a few weeks of extra medical care to several months to lifelong disability, leaving babies with conditions like Brachial Plexus Injuries, Erb’s Palsy, Facial Nerve Palsy, Cerebral Palsy, Eclampsia, and many other birth injury conditions.

Birth injuries may have devastating, long-term effects on the baby and the family.
