We understand that no settlement or jury verdict can compensate for an injury to an infant. However, we know that families dealing with the tragedy of a birth injury incur significant medical expenses and can face considerable long-term expenses related to their child's injury. Our firm is focused on helping to ensure families have the resources they need to care for their child.

Our attorneys have obtained millions of dollars in verdicts and settlements for families dealing with birth injuries. We are able to work with obstetricians, accountants, and life care planners to help demonstrate the causes and impacts of a wide range of birth injuries:

• Cerebral Palsy
• Erb's Palsy / brachial plexus palsy / shoulder dystocia
• Forceps lacerations and bruising
• Brain damage caused by improper use of vacuum extractors
• Facial paralysis
• Subconjunctival hemorrhage

Birth injuries can result from negligence that occurs during labor, after delivery, as well as during a pregnancy. Our attorneys closely examine all medical records to determine whether or not there was any deviation from the customary standard of care.
