Avoidable Injuries at Birth
Injuries that children suffer at birth — like cerebral palsy, Erb's palsy and shoulder dystocia, to name a few — can transform a family's joyous time into a catastrophe. That suffering increases immeasurably when the injuries were entirely avoidable. With diligence, attention to detail and competence, very few babies and their families should ever have to suffer these tragic injuries.
With more than 45 combined years of legal experience, our Akron birth injury lawyers have a wealth of experience that will help obtain successful results for our clients in birth injury litigation. Contact us for a free consultation with one of our attorneys.
Some of the most common mistakes that hospitals and physicians make during pregnancy, delivery and the early days of life include:
- Improper fetal monitoring during pregnancy or delivery
- Failure to timely perform a cesarean delivery
- C-section surgical errors
- Improper use of forceps or vacuum extraction methods
- VBAC complications
- Umbilical cord strangulation or compression
Commitment Wins Cases
Our lawyers have fought the largest hospitals and defense law firms. We have hired—and opposed—the finest medical experts in the world. Hospitals and surgeons will aggressively defend birth injury cases, even when their mistakes seem obvious. Your attorneys must be prepared and experienced. They must be willing to aggressively find the evidence, hire the necessary experts and devote their time to your case. There are no quick and easy settlements. Commitment wins these cases.
We do not simply hope for settlements for our clients. We prepare our cases for trial right from the start, which greatly improves the settlement offers that come in for our clients, and it greatly improves our results at trial for cases that cannot be settled.
