About Birth Injuries

Birth injuries are instances of physical harm during childbirth directly caused by medical errors. There are many types of birth injuries, ranging from mild to severe. Birth injuries may cause irreversible damage.

Children with birth injuries often require months or even years of therapy or adaptive equipment. If your child has been diagnosed with a birth injury, there are options for financial support that can help you and your family in your time of need. If your child’s birth injury was caused by medical malpractice or medical negligence, a monetary settlement may be able to help you and your family cover the cost of expensive medical treatments.

Cerebral palsy is a disorder of movement, muscle tone or posture that is caused by injury to the brain. Brain damage can occur due to improper development or physical injury before, during or after birth.
