Common Types of Birth Injuries
Medical negligence in the delivery process can lead to a variety of birth injuries. Many birth injuries can be the result of misuse of delivery tools, failure to monitor the child’s vital signs, pulling too strenuously on the child, and more.
Common birth injuries include:
- Nerve damage
- Cerebral palsy
- Erb’s palsy
- Traumatic brain injury
- Spinal cord trauma
- Cephalohematoma
- Brachial plexus palsy
There are many more types of birth injuries newborns can suffer from. Our attorneys recognize the pain and stress that can arise in these situations, and we strive to help alleviate them. With our legal guidance, we can help guide you through the process of seeking compensation that could cover medical expenses, medication, pain and suffering, and more.
Who Can Be Held Liable for Birth Injuries?
Depending on the nature of the injury and the staff attending the birth, parties may be held liable.
These parties can include:
- Doctors
- Physicians
- Anesthesiologists
- Nurses
- Other support staff
It's important to understand that in some cases, the company that owns or operates the hospital where the injury occurred may also be held responsible. However, determining liability can be complicated and requires a thorough evaluation of the specific details of your case. That's why when building a claim, it's essential to work with our experienced legal professionals who know how to navigate the complexities of your case.
