Dallas Birth Injuries Attorney

Dealing With Birth Injuries

Any parent realizing their newborn has a birth injury will naturally be devastated when informed of the injury.  Realizing that your child will likely be handicapped or seriously disabled for life leaves a parent feeling angry, confused and guilty about possibly having caused the birth injury somehow.  Most parents have no idea that some type of negligence during or before the delivery may have led to the birth injury.  Birth injuries commonly occur when a medical professional fails to take the precautions they should in monitoring either the child or the mother.  Birth injuries caused by lack of oxygen during the birth can cause cerebral palsy, brain damage and other neurological damage in the baby.  Improper treatment of the mother due to lack of proper monitoring could result in drug reactions that adversely affect the child during the pregnancy and birth.  If your child was born with a birth injury and you aren't sure if there may have been malpractice, it is best to consult with an experienced Personal Injury attorney who has the skill needed to properly evaluate the situation and determine whether there may be a claim for damages.

When your child is born with a birth defect, the rest of their life may be severely impacted.  Your child may not be able to lead a normal life, and require lifetime medical care.  This can be devastating to you and your family, straining you emotionally and financially.  When a medical professional such as a doctor, nurse, clinic or hospital causes a birth injury due to negligence, they must be held accountable for the damage they have caused.  The Malaise Law Firm can provide you with the caring and compassionate personal injury lawyer you will need during this traumatic situation.
