Knowledgeable New York Birth Injury Lawyer

Our knowledgeable New York birth injury lawyer understands the trauma that accompanies a birth injury. Whether the mother or child was injured or killed, we will fight for the compensation you need and deserve.

While no amount of money can fully compensate you for such a loss, we can help you get the fair and just compensation you will need to compensate for medical expenses, lost wages, long-term care, and pain and suffering.

Our medical malpractice attorney has extensive experience handling birth injury claims, including those involving:

  • Oxygen deprivation - Oxygen deprivation at birth causes brain damage in infants. The causes of oxygen deprivation can involve the umbilical cord wrapping around a baby's neck or a delay in performing a cesarean section (C-section).
  • Erb's Palsy - also known as "shoulder dystocia".
  • Improper monitoring - Failure to properly monitor a mother or infant can have devastating consequences. If you or your child was injured as the result of failure to monitor heartbeat, contractions, drug use, or another vital issue, we can help.
  • Prescribing the wrong medication or dosage - Prescribing the wrong medication or dosage can have a serious effect on the mother and baby. If you or your child has been injured by a medication error involving any medicine, including Cytotec (also known as "Misoprostol"), we may be able to help.

If you, or your baby, have been seriously injured during pregnancy, labor or the baby's birth, you want to speak with a legal professional who has experience and knowledge of medical malpractice and birthing injuries. We have over 18 years of experience with medical malpractice claims and birth injury claims.
