Areas of practice

A medical mistake during birth can be devastating and often results in several expensive surgeries, physical and emotional damage and a lifetime of challenges and pain. Unfortunately, these injuries are not rare. For every 1,000 babies born alive in the U.S. each year, six babies incur birth trauma injuries.

In many instances, birth injuries are caused by improper care and/or negligence by either the doctor or hospital, prior to or during childbirth, and can result in conditions such as:

  • BRACHIAL PLEXUS INJURY
  • SHOULDER DYSTOCIA
  • STILLBIRTH
  • BRAIN INJURY
  • ERB’S PALSY
  • FETAL DISTRESS
  • CEREBRAL PALSY
