The risk of complications can be present in the course of a child's birth despite the advancements in medicine that make it safer than ever. If you suspect that your child suffered from a preventable birth injury, consult an experienced birth injury lawyer immediately.

A firm that focuses on birth injury cases will typically finance all litigation costs and only pay when they receive an award in your case.

Your attorney will request all relevant medical records and reports relating to your baby's injuries. He or she may employ medical experts to review the evidence and provide an official opinion as to whether the medical personnel who delivered your baby did not follow the standard care. In a typical case an expert will examine the medical care provided by the defendant to the standard practices used by other medical professionals with similar education and experience.

Damages can be awarded for both economic and non-economic losses. Economic damages cover expenses like current and future medical bills, lost income and property loss. Non-economic damages include emotional distress, pain and suffering. In rare cases punitive damages can also be awarded. They are designed to punish the person who is at fault and discourage similar behavior in future. These are different from compensatory damages, which are awarded to cover actual losses.

Medical Experts

Although medical advances have made childbirth more secure than ever before, the process still involves some risk for both the mother and the baby. It is the responsibility of nurses and doctors involved in the delivery to act professionally, and to avoid making mistakes that could have disastrous consequences for both mother and baby's health. If they fail to follow through and cause a birth injury parents can claim compensation for their injuries.

A birth injury lawyer will work closely with you throughout the course of your case, beginning from the initial consultation through to the final resolution. They will gather evidence from you, such as medical records and witness testimonies as well as seek expert opinions from many sources, including other specialists and doctors.

They will look over the evidence and give a formal opinion as to whether the injuries were the result of medical negligence. The lawyer will use this to decide how best to proceed.

If the medical expert agrees that there was a malpractice the lawyer will file a lawsuit against the responsible parties. This includes the obstetrician who was in charge of your pregnancy as well as any nurses, surgeons or hospital personnel who helped during the delivery.

The cost of a lawsuit can be high as a result of the many fees such as the cost of documents, expert witnesses and depositions. Your lawyer will pay these costs, and then reimburse you once they settle your case.

Preparing for the Trial

A birth injury lawyer will take on any case where the baby suffered injuries due to a doctor's negligence, before or during or shortly after delivery. The lawyer will consider two factors when analyzing the case to determine if there is evidence of medical negligence, and how severe the injury is.

Attorneys often consult with medical experts to determine if the injury was caused by medical negligence. Experts will carefully review the records of the pregnancy, the child's birth and the medical treatment given to the injuries afterward. They will also be in a position to evaluate the impact of the injuries suffered by the child on their future.

The experts will help the lawyer determine the medical providers to be named as defendants in the lawsuit. The lawyer will then send a letter the medical providers and their insurers asking them to respond to the claim. A reputable birth injury lawyer will be able to negotiate with insurance companies and be ready to go to trial if necessary.

Parents could be entitled to compensation for medical expenses arising from their child's injuries. You may also receive damages for pain and suffering. These damages could be substantial when the child's injuries were severe. An experienced birth injury lawyer can help maximize the amount of compensation paid to the parents.

Insurance Companies

While a birth injury lawsuit can't reverse the harm done to your child, it can be used to pay for future medical expenses as well as the cost of therapy as well as home modifications and ongoing support. The costs could seem overwhelming, but a knowledgeable birth injury lawyer will work with a variety of experts to determine the financial impact on your family's finances from the injury you sustained and the amount of compensation you are entitled to.

In order to submit a claim for birth injuries first, you must prove that your doctor and your child have an official relationship and that they violated this relationship by not acting appropriately prior to or during the birth of your child. You can easily prove this by obtaining your medical bills and hospital bills.

Once this has been established the lawyer will need to identify what specific actions the doctor made that were negligent and how they impacted your child's health. A birth injury lawyer will know what to look for and how to obtain the medical records and expert witness testimony needed to prove your case.

A reputable birth injury lawyer will handle all the complexities of your case and should never require you to pay out of your pocket to seek justice. They should work on a contingency fee basis, meaning that they only get paid if they win your case. The amount they earn is a portion of the settlement or award you receive.
