Mistakes in Labor and Delivery
The effects of birth injuries can be permanent and result in cognitive and physical impairments and even death. We handle all injuries that occurred during labor and delivery, including:
- Understaffed hospital: Lack of proper nursing staff can result in not noticing fetal distress calls. If your child's birth injury resulted from lack of proper attention and negligence, you need the help of our experienced attorney.
- C-section errors: If a C-section is not performed in a timely manner, there can be serious damage for the baby and the mother.
- Umbilical cord concerns: In some cases, the umbilical cord is twisted around the baby's neck. In most cases, an ultrasound can detect this problem and a medical professional can take the proper actions to address the situation. If it remains unnoticed in the ultrasound, the umbilical cord can cause oxygen deprivation or even be life threatening to the child.
