Birth Injury
Michigan and Co-Counsel Nationwide
We’ll fight for your newborn.
When an infant is injured during childbirth, an experienced birth injury lawyer can help you seek answers and justice. Although most babies are born healthy, infants can be injured during the complex birthing process. Some injuries are due to the baby’s size and position during labor, while other problems are caused by maternal complications.
For every 1,000 babies born, 2 to 7 infants are injured during birth.
In many cases, birth injuries are avoidable through responsive and appropriate medical care. However, when medical mistakes are made, a newborn can suffer significant injury. In some cases, the baby will have a lifelong disability. If errors occur, families may pursue a birth injury lawsuit to obtain the compensation they need and deserve. Medical mistakes and negligence can prolong a child’s health care requirements for weeks, months or even years. Our firm wants to help parents obtain information on what occurred during the birthing process, so those who are negligent may be held responsible.
