Uterine Rupture
Our Chicago, IL birth injury lawyers put your best interests first
When a woman’s uterus ruptures during pregnancy or the delivery of a baby, the consequences can be catastrophic for the mother and the child. That’s why it’s critical that medical professionals carefully monitor a woman’s health and take immediate action if they see warning signs that a rupture may occur in the woman’s uterus.
During pregnancy, the fetus develops inside a woman’s uterus. If a tear or rupture occurs in the uterus during pregnancy or during the delivery process, mother and baby could be at risk – and while doctors may have communicated regarding the risk to the mother, they are often not clear about the risks to the baby. Uterine ruptures are often associated with birth injuries.
Figuring out what to do in such situations can be overwhelming. Even knowing what your rights are might not be clear. That’s why it’s important to talk with an experienced birth injury lawyer who knows how the legal system works and knows how to get results. That’s why we want to meet with you at Goldberg & Schulkin Law Offices.
