ERBS PALSY LAWSUITS INVESTIGATED BY OUR LAW FIRM

Medical malpractice at birth can result in substantial pain and suffering for the child who is left with Erb’s Palsy and substantial expenses can be incurred by the family to provide treatment for their child. In many cases a brachial plexus injury could have been prevented through the proper use of medical procedures and available technology.

Some examples of cases our medical malpractice lawyers have investigated for children who suffered a shoulder injury resulting in Erb’s Palsy include:

  • Failure to properly estimate the baby’s weight before birth
  • Failure to plan for a cesarean (c-section) when risk factors are present
  • Failure to use techniques to prevent the shoulder from getting caught on the mother’s pubic bone
  • Use of excessive force during the birth to pull the baby out during delivery
  • Failure to react accordingly when problems are encountered during the birth

While the cause of Erbs palsy is usually known, the steps that could have been taken to prevent the situation or avoid injury to the shoulder are not always apparent to the family. Following a free consultation and claim evaluation, if a review of medical records indicates that the brachial plexus injury could have been prevented, benefits may be available through an Erb’s palsy lawsuit to compensate the child for their lifetime injury.
