Medical Malpractice Attorneys in Tampa, Clearwater, and West Central Florida

Medical Malpractice Attorneys Can Assist you with Birth Injury Claims

Birth Injury

When a newborn suffers injury during the birth process, it can leave a family traumatized and facing a future of costly medical procedures and attendant care. While not all birth injuries are caused by negligence, those that are due to the wrongful act of a medical provider or professional can be addressed by a skilled medical malpractice attorney in Tampa, Clearwater or the West Central Florida area who knows how to fight to secure the monetary compensation that the family will need to care for their child.

If something seems wrong with your newborn, it is important that you do not wait to seek out legal advice. You have a limited time in which to file a medical malpractice lawsuit, and it is important to begin to assemble and preserve the necessary evidence to prove your case.

A difficult birth can lead to injury to a newborn for a variety of reasons. Some conditions that may be associated with a difficult birth include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Large babies
  • Premature baby
  • Cephalopelvic disproportion
  • Dystocia
  • Prolonged labor
  • Abnormal birthing presentation
  • Oxygen deprivation

 Common birth injuries include the following:

  • Caput succedaneum
  • Subconjunctival hemorrhage
  • Brachial palsy
  • Fractures of the clavicle or collarbone
  • Cerebral palsy
  • Erb's palsy
  • Brain damage
  • Klumpke’s palsy
  • Spinal cord damage

A skilled Tampa medical malpractice lawyer can evaluate the circumstances surrounding the birth of a child and determine whether the injury would have been preventable with proper care and adherence to the correct procedures. We can review and evaluate your case at no charge to see if the birth injury was caused by the negligence or malpractice of a healthcare professional.
