I would like to sincerely thank Robert Langer and the entire staff at Langer & Langer for all they have done for our family. From the moment Robert learned about our daughter’s case, he personally called me that same night. As a mother, that means more to me than I can put into words. We still have a journey ahead of us, but I truly appreciate Robert Langer and his entire team for everything they have done and continue to do for our family. When you’re going through one of the hardest times of your life, having people who genuinely care makes such a difference…not only for you, but for your entire family. I thank Father God for placing Robert and his team along our path. And I know in my heart that my little girl would be proud to know that her mommy hasn’t stopped and will not stop seeking justice for her. 💚💚💚

I reached out after my ex-employer had a company vehicle hit my parked car and they didn’t want to pay for the damages. Robert within a week got me compensated for the damages and my lost wages!

I highly recommend Steve Langer, a two-time award-winning attorney of Langer and Langer Law. I consulted with him regarding a severe bedsores neglect case involving a beloved family member. He demonstrated compassionate care from the very first minute making me feel completely supported during a tough time. Even for a simple initial evaluation, he was exceptionally thorough and generously invested his valuable time free of charge to look into our situation. He is honest, highly efficient, and will not waste time or money. He is a wonderful person of the highest professional standards and unmatched integrity. LOOK NO FURTHER! P.S. I am truly honored to have met him and will definitely send referrals his way.

Langer & Langer is a professional and compassionate firm. I am very pleased with the service they provided me and the staff! Heather Gilbert exceeded my expectations and is a great person too. I will miss conversations with her now that my case is closed. I cannot express my gratitude and respect for Heather and the entire staff of Langer & Langer. If you are looking for results from top notch attorneys, you need to hire Langer & Langer.

I reached out to Robert at Langer & Langer after being involved in an accident. From the beginning, he and his team have been incredibly responsive and always available to answer any questions—they either reply right away or follow up with a call very quickly. Any time documents or updates were sent, they made sure I had a chance to review everything and encouraged me to reach out with questions, which made me feel comfortable and informed throughout the process. They are extremely professional and honest, and at no point did I feel like just another case—I truly felt like they genuinely care about their clients. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing an attorney after an accident.

What Is a Birth Injury?

Common Injuries Our Birth Injury Attorneys See

These matters can be complex and have a profound effect on your future, your investments, and your home. Our team represents families in Valparaiso and across Indiana who are dealing with serious birth injuries, including the most common birth injuries caused by medical errors. Contact our team of birth injury attorneys for the help you need when you need it most.

Birth Injuries Can Happen for a Wide Range of Reasons

Who Can Be Held Liable for Birth Injuries?

The labor and delivery processes are often overseen by a team of medical professionals who monitor, medicate, and otherwise treat the mother and the baby. Although some birth injuries are caused by the negligence of a single healthcare provider, others happen after multiple opportunities for intervention and/or correction are missed. Anyone whose negligence contributes to harm to the mother or the baby can be held liable for birth injuries. This includes, but is not limited to:
  •  Anesthesiologists
  •  Birthing Centers
  •  Doctors
  •  Hospitals
  •  Lab Technicians
  •  Medical Clinics
  •  Medical Device
  •  Manufacturers
  •  Midwives
  •  Nurses
  •  Radiologists
  •  Surgeons

Working with medical malpractice lawyers in Indiana ensures you have the guidance needed to identify all potentially liable parties.

Should You File a Birth Injury Claim?

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.
