Birth Injuries

Birth Injury Attorney

During the birth process, a baby or mother may suffer a physical injury that is caused by negligence on the part of the medical professionals attending to them. If you believe that your doctor acted irresponsibly and caused injury to your or your child, then you deserve compensation for your losses.

Paralysis
Shoulder Dystocia

Many of these injuries can have a permanent effect on a baby, incurring medical bills, as well as emotional and physical suffering for the rest of the child’s life.
