Common Types of Birth Injuries

Medical providers must follow strict standards of care during labor and delivery. When they fail to do so, preventable injuries can occur. We handle cases involving:

Cerebral Palsy

Often caused by oxygen deprivation, leading to lifelong mobility and cognitive challenges.

Brachial Plexus Injuries (Erb’s Palsy)

Nerve damage in the shoulder and arm, often due to excessive force during delivery.

Brain Damage from Lack of Oxygen

Prolonged labor or failure to perform a timely C-section can lead to permanent brain injuries.

Fractures & Broken Bones

Improper use of forceps or vacuum extraction can cause broken clavicles, arms, or legs.

Maternal Injuries

Severe hemorrhaging, untreated infections, and anesthesia errors can endanger both mother and baby.

Frequently Asked Questions About Birth Injury Claims

  • How do I know if my child’s injury was caused by medical negligence?

    If a doctor failed to monitor fetal distress, delayed a C-section, used excessive force, or mismanaged delivery, you may have a case. Our legal team works with medical experts to identify errors.

  • How long do I have to file a birth injury lawsuit in Georgia?

    In Georgia, most medical malpractice claims must be filed within two years. However, for birth injuries, families may have additional time to file on behalf of the child.

  • Can I sue if my baby was injured due to a delayed C-section?

    Yes. Delaying an emergency C-section can cause oxygen deprivation, brain injuries, and other preventable complications.

  • What if my child has a disability due to a birth injury?

    If your child’s condition was caused by medical negligence, you may seek compensation for lifelong medical care, special education needs, and adaptive equipment.

  • How much is my birth injury case worth?

    The value of your case depends on the severity of the injury, long-term care needs, and the impact on your child’s future. We offer free case evaluations to assess your legal options.
