Birth trauma occurs when a baby sustains injuries during the birthing process. Sometimes birth injuries are minor, and the effects are short term. Other times, however, severe birth injuries alter the course of a child’s life, resulting in significant emotional strain and financial stress on families.
Birth injuries affect approximately 29 out of every 1,000 babies in the United States. Anytime physical force or intervention is required during labor or delivery, the risk of birth injuries is higher. Although not all birth injuries are caused by medical malpractice, negligence on the part of medical professionals is all too often the cause.
These matters can be complex and have a profound effect on your future, your investments and your home. Contact our Indiana real estate law attorneys for the help you need when you need it most.
Poor prenatal care, medication errors, mistakes during delivery, and inadequate aftercare can all contribute to birth injuries. If you suspect your baby was injured because of a medical professional’s negligence, our birth injury lawyers can investigate to help determine the cause. We will consider whether any of the following may have caused your baby harm.
Filing a claim against your obstetrician or another healthcare provider for medical negligence can help ensure that you have access to the financial resources necessary to obtain the support and medical care your child needs now, and that you will be able to afford any special medical equipment, medications, and treatment he or she will need later on in life. A birth injury claim also holds the negligent parties accountable, serving as a tool to deter similar acts or omissions in the future.
If you bring a birth injury lawsuit against a negligent medical provider, your birth injury lawyer will be responsible for proving that the following exist.
Your birth injury attorney will need to establish that the medical provider in question owed a duty of care to you and/or your baby.
It must be established that the doctor, nurse, or other medical professional breached that duty through negligent acts or omissions. This breach may have occurred at any stage throughout the course of prenatal care, labor, delivery of the baby, or during postnatal care.
Your birth injury lawyer will need to demonstrate that a link existed between the medical provider’s act or omission and the baby’s injuries. It is not sufficient to simply show that a medical professional was negligent. The negligence must have contributed to the baby’s trauma.
For a viable birth injury claim to exist, your baby must have suffered actual injuries. Your birth injury lawyer will use evidence such as physician’s reports, expert opinions, imaging results, and more to show how your baby was injured.
