The birth of a baby can be one of the most joyous times in a parents’ life. But nothing can tarnish that moment more than a birth injury. Many times the injury is not serious and will correct itself, but sometimes the injury is such that the baby or mother may have more serious or long-term effects.
Some of the most traumatic injuries occur when there is a problem with the baby’s shoulders during delivery and the baby suffers a broken collarbone. This condition is referred to as Erb’s Palsy. Another condition that sometimes occurs is when the baby’s brain doesn’t get enough oxygen during delivery and then suffers permanent disabilities such as cerebral palsy.
In the event you or a loved one has a baby that received
a traumatic birth injury, there may be legal recourse.
You may be able to receive monetary compensation for medical
bills, specialized long term care, and pain and suffering.
