Out of the total number of births each year, only a small percentage involve a medical mistake that leads to a birth injury. However, every year thousands of children are diagnosed with cerebral palsy, erb’s palsy, or other forms of a birth injury which are directly caused by a doctor’s error or medical mistake.
If an injury at birth could have been prevented with the exercise of reasonable care, then the child would not be forced to face a lifetime of disability. In addition, the family would not face the substantial expenses associated with providing the best treatment available for their child. Request a free consultation and claim evaluation.
