Goodman Acker P.C. handles birth injury cases involving labor and delivery complications. If your child suffered a preventable injury during delivery resulting from a doctor’s negligence, you may be entitled to substantial compensation. Contact our firm today to learn more about your legal options.
Doctors have to be prepared to think quickly and respond to potential issues during childbirth in order to prevent injury to his or her patient and her child. When a doctor or nurse is negligent in this regard, they may end up causing serious and/or permanent harm to the baby. In the blink of an eye, an error can lead to a lifetime of medical expenses and specialized care for the parents and a severe diminishment in quality of life for the child.
Some of the most common labor and delivery complications include:
When labor and delivery complications are not identified and addressed in a timely manner, a number of serious injuries may result, including but not limited to brachial plexus injuries, cerebral palsy, Erb’s palsy, nerve damage to the spinal cord, brain damage, and more.
