Birth Injuries

Birth injuries refer to physical or neurological damage that occurs to a baby during the labor and delivery process. These injuries can result from complications such as inadequate medical care, improper use of delivery instruments, or failure to monitor the mother and baby properly. Examples include cerebral palsy, fractures, or nerve damage. In personal injury law, families may seek compensation if the injury resulted from medical negligence or malpractice, aiming to cover ongoing medical treatment, therapy, and other related expenses for the affected child. Understanding the legal aspects can be crucial for the affected families in seeking justice and support.
