Birth Injury and Delivery Errors

The birth of a child should be one of life’s most joyful experiences. When medical professionals fail to provide proper care during pregnancy, labor, or delivery, the results can be devastating.

Birthing errors can cause serious and lifelong injuries to both mother and child. If your family has been affected by a medical mistake during childbirth, our attorneys can help you understand your rights and pursue justice.

Birth Injury and Delivery Errors occur when doctors, nurses, or other medical staff fail to meet the accepted standard of care during prenatal care or delivery. These mistakes are often preventable and may lead to lasting harm. Common types of Delivery Errors include:

Healthcare providers are responsible for tracking the baby’s heart rate and oxygen levels throughout labor. Failing to respond to signs of distress can result in oxygen deprivation, brain damage, or death.

When forceps or vacuum extractors are used incorrectly, they can cause skull fractures, nerve damage, or internal injuries to both the baby and the mother.

If complications arise and a C-section is necessary, medical staff must act quickly. Delaying a necessary procedure can lead to permanent brain injury or other severe complications.

The consequences of delivery errors can affect every part of a family’s life. These injuries often require long-term care, rehabilitation, and emotional support.

Beyond the physical injuries, birthing errors often create emotional pain and financial strain. Families may face lost income, high medical costs, and ongoing care needs for their child.
