Newborn children who sustain injuries to the spine during pregnancy or childbirth can experience serious medical issues for the rest of their lives. In an instant, your child could lose the ability to walk or perform other physical activities. Sometimes these injuries are temporary, but often the effects of a spinal cord injury can be permanent. In general, there are two primary kinds of spinal cord injuries:
These birth injuries can occur due to the negligent or reckless actions of medical professionals. Knowing what to do in such situations can be overwhelming. That’s why it’s important to talk to an experienced birth injury attorney right away if you suspect that your child’s spinal cord injury occurred due to medical malpractice.

Spinal cord injuries during birth occur for many different reasons. In many cases, these injuries occur during difficult childbirth. This is especially true if there’s a prolonged delivery or the fetus is larger than normal.
Other times, the risk of an infant being born with a spinal cord injury can be higher if the fetus is not in a normal position shortly before being born. Abnormal fetal position can put extreme pressure on the infant’s neck or back and result in a spinal cord injury during delivery.
The biggest reason why you need our law firm on your side is that we know how to prove that medical professionals were responsible for your child’s spinal cord injury. That might sound simple, but often, doctors, nurses, and other health care professionals refuse to admit wrongdoing.
We know how to hold people accountable for their actions. And as your attorney, we’re prepared to do the work that needs to be done to build a compelling legal case. Our attorneys are experienced investigators and negotiators. If the medical provider’s insurance company refuses to cooperate, we’re prepared to take them to court if necessary.
