Boston Birth Injury Lawyers

Preventable Birth Injuries Still Common

The birth of your child should be a joyous occasion. Unfortunately, for tens of thousands of new parents each year, this cause for celebration is overshadowed by the discovery of a newborn’s underlying medical problems. While some of these medical problems are genetic or innate, a surprising number of birth injuries are incurred through mistakes and delays during the birthing process.

The carelessness, ignorance, and negligence of a handful of medical professionals can alter the life of your child forever. At Kiley Law Group, it is our mission to hold these doctors and nurses accountable for their lack of care and help the families who suffer from preventable birth injuries.

How does birth trauma occur?

Your doctor might wait too long to perform a cesarean section.
A nurse might administer a dangerous dose of Pitocin to the birth mother.
Your doctor might misread or misinterpret fetal heart rate monitoring strips.
Your medical team might generally fail to act in a timely manner.

Any of these birth trauma scenarios could lead to lifelong disabilities for your child.

Our client services for children with birth injuries include:

Hypoxia
Fractures
Erb’s Palsy (Brachial Plexus Injury)
Cerebral Palsy
Facial Paralysis
Cephalohematoma
Vacuum Extraction
Caput Succedaneum
Subconjunctival Hemmorhage

According to research conducted by the Center for Disease Control, the average lifetime cost of caring for a child with cerebral palsy is a staggering $921,000. If someone else’s mistake lead to both your child’s permanent disability and your family’s financial ruin, your family may be entitled to compensation for the care your child may need over his or her lifetime.

Don’t struggle to cover these costs without help.

Your child will require special care for years to come – from doctor visits, hospital stays, and therapy to assistive devices, home modifications, and vehicle modifications.

For the past 30 years, our firm has worked with the victims of child injury, birth injury, and medical malpractice to secure the monetary support they need to cope with the long-term effects of their child’s disabilities.

If your child has suffered a birth injury, they may be entitled to compensation for:

Pain and suffering
Future earnings
Medical bills related to the accident
Pharmacy costs
Physical therapy
Loss of enjoyment of life

You shouldn’t have to accrue debt and deplete your family’s savings because someone else failed to care for your child.
