The birth of a child is one of life’s miracles, but when a birth injury occurs, it can bring unexpected heartache and challenges. Our nationwide birth injury lawyers will stand by your side to advocate for your family’s future and well-being.
Medicine has progressed to the point that childbirth is no longer as dangerous an event as it once was, where women used to be much more concerned about the health ramifications having a child would entail both for the mother and the newborn. Despite all of this progress, our birth injury lawyer team knows too well—there is still a lot that can go wrong. For every 1,000 children born in the United States, 6-8 are born with a birth injury. Many of these birth injuries occur due to unforeseeable circumstances and issues that nobody has power over, yet some are the result of negligence on the part of doctors, medical staff, or hospitals.
Newborns and mothers who suffer birth injuries as a result of a doctor’s or similarly liable party’s negligence deserve compensation for the damages they suffer. Birth injuries can be extremely harmful since they can cause permanent health problems for the rest of a child’s life. Holding doctors accountable for negligent behavior is possible; you must file a birth injury lawsuit. Undoubtedly, a lawsuit can get you the compensation you need to cover the severe damages associated with these injuries and help stop similar negligence from harming others. If your child has suffered a birth injury due to the negligence of a doctor or similarly liable party, contact Turnbull, Moak & Pendergrass today at (205) 831-5040 or online for a free case evaluation or to discuss your rights and options further.
