Premature babies are some of the most vulnerable children. Often with low birth weight these little children need a great deal of care and attention. If a medical professional makes a small mistake it can mean serious and potentially life-threatening consequences for these children. If you believe your child sustained a birth injury because of an error from medical professionals in the neonatal intensive care unit, you need to speak with an attorney.

We handle birth injury cases with great compassion and care for that very reason.

Mistakes in the NICU
The neonatal intensive care unit is often used for babies in the first 28 days of life — when they are most vulnerable. Some of the mistakes that emerge from the NICU include:
- Lack of detection: One of the greatest concerns is the failure to detect a problem with one of these children. Failure to diagnose a condition can be life threatening.
- Misdiagnosis: Another concern in the NICU is the potential misdiagnosis of a condition
- Improper staffing: A NICU that is understaffed can present other types of problems. Without enough medical professionals, mistakes can happen.
If you believe that your child was injured because of an NICU error, it is crucial that you speak with an attorney as soon as possible.
