What Counts as a Birth Injury?
A birth injury is physical harm that a baby suffers before, during, or shortly after delivery – often due to avoidable medical mistakes. Common examples include:
- Oxygen deprivation (HIE): Can cause brain damage or cerebral palsy if not promptly addressed.
- Shoulder dystocia and brachial plexus injuries: Occur when a baby’s shoulder becomes stuck during delivery.
- Improper use of forceps or vacuum extractors: Can lead to skull fractures or facial nerve damage.
- Failure to monitor fetal distress: Delayed C-sections or ignoring warning signs can result in lifelong consequences.
In many of these cases, better decisions by doctors or nurses could have prevented permanent harm.
What Compensation Can You Recover?
If your child was injured due to medical negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for:
- Medical bills and future care costs
- Lost earning capacity (on behalf of your child)
- Pain, suffering, and loss of quality of life
- Emotional distress for the family
Our firm works with life care planners, economists, and medical experts to calculate the full impact of your child’s injury and fight for the maximum compensation available.
