Spinal Cord Birth Injury Resulting in Paralyzation

Complications are often encountered during a delivery.  How a doctor, hospital and medical staff react to these complications can impact the long-term health of the child.  In rare occurrences, a medical malpractice during birth may cause a spinal cord trauma for the child, resulting in life-long paralysis and other injuries.

When the baby becomes stuck in the birth canal, the doctor must use care to avoid excessive force or overstretching of the baby, which could impact the spinal cord.

Although this type of medical malpractice birth injury is rare, the results can be devastating. The child will often suffer paralysis without any ability to move certain parts of their body.  The damage to the spinal cord is usually permanent, leaving the child with a lifelong disability.

If your child or a family member has been diagnosed with a spinal cord injury that you believe may have been caused by a medical mistake during delivery, our birth injury lawyers can review the circumstances surrounding the birth and have medical records reviewed by qualified experts to determine whether the child’s injury could have been prevented.

Our malpractice attorneys have investigated and reviewed thousands of claims for parents of children who suffered a birth injury caused by negligence, neglect and mistakes made by doctors during child birth.  Our clients have recovered millions of dollars in compensation settlement benefits.
