About Birth Injury Law
Whether you call it a birth injury, delivery negligence, birth trauma, or obstetric malpractice — when medical negligence during pregnancy, labor, or delivery causes harm to your baby, your family is entitled to significant compensation.
Birth injury cases are among the most valuable personal injury cases in the USA. Settlements often reach millions of dollars because they account for a lifetime of medical care, therapy, special education, and loss of quality of life for the child.
Cerebral palsy is caused by brain damage during birth, often from oxygen deprivation. Brachial plexus injuries (Erb's palsy) occur when the baby's nerves are damaged during delivery. HIE (hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy) results from lack of oxygen to the brain. All of these can result from medical negligence — and our birth injury attorneys fight for the maximum compensation your child deserves.
