Question:
Can I file a medical malpractice claim due to a birth injury?

Answer:

You may need to know if there can be a claim for a child’s injury that occurs during delivery or birth that can be actionable as medical malpractice. It can be, and we’ve successfully prosecuted those claims a number of times. We hire experts to examine whether or not there was a failure of care, either in preparation for or during delivery where the doctor could have avoided it had they done what was proper.

Some deliveries are going to be complicated and they’re going to have certain expected complications, but in no way does that absolve any medical care provider of negligence. If a medical care provider, including the physician who delivers the child, has failed to do what is required by the standard of care, then we do have a claim for medical malpractice.
