The standards established by the medical profession have allowed millions of childbirths to go smoothly.

What Is The Nature Of The Birth Injury?
Our lawyers handle cases involving injuries during pregnancy, as well as injuries during labor and delivery. These injuries often involve brain damage or paralysis and come in the form of:
- Cerebral palsy
- Erb’s palsy
- Shoulder dystocia
Our job is to determine exactly how much compensation our client requires. This is complex in these cases, because that compensation must include enough money to cover a lifetime’s worth of major medical care.
Medical Records May Not Have All The Answers
In order to succeed in birth injury cases, like all other types of medical malpractice cases, a law firm must have access to trusted medical professionals who are willing to testify as expert witnesses. These experts are able to look beyond what is written in the medical records to find out exactly how the standard of care was not met, and to establish that the substandard care was the underlying cause of the birth injury. We have access to the necessary medical experts and are able to work with them to design successful legal strategies.
Personal Injury Cases Handled On A Contingency Basis
Our legal fees are based on contingency. If there is no recovery in your birth injury case, you will owe us nothing for fees or expenses.
