Glendale Birth Injury Attorneys
California Medical Malpractice Lawyers
In spite of the vast improvements and breakthroughs in medicine that occur on a regular basis, injuries during childbirth still occur. Negligence or improper care on the part of the doctor, nurse or hospital is often the cause of birth injuries, and when this is the case, you may be able to file a medical malpractice claim in order to bring the responsible party to justice. By filing a claim for the injuries your child has suffered, you have the chance to receive compensation to pay for medical expenses and treatments that may help your child.
Every doctor and licensed medical professional has an obligation to patients to provide proper medical care and proper treatment to handle any complications which may arise. During a pregnancy and during childbirth, an unexpected situation may come up which will require a fast and correct response on the part of the doctor. If the doctor or nurse fails to provide proper treatment, this may be grounds for a birth injury claim.
How an Attorney Can Help
By working with an attorney in regards to your claim, you can focus on your family and on recovery. You should not have to deal with an impersonal insurance adjuster who is trying to give you the lowest settlement possible. Instead, your lawyer can communicate with the insurance company and file your claim so you have the chance to get the maximum amount of compensation possible. At the Law Offices of Yarian & Patatanyan, we have dealt with birth injury cases in California and will apply our knowledge and resources to help you get a favorable outcome.
Cerebral palsy, paralysis, broken bones, bruising, brain damage and respiratory infection are all injuries which may occur during childbirth. Particularly in instrument deliveries (using forceps or suction), or when a baby is large, there is a greater likelihood of injury to occur. When your son or daughter has suffered at the hands of a negligent or incompetent doctor or nurse, you should be able to take action.
