Louisville Birth Injury Attorney

Birth injuries are some of the most unfortunate outcomes of medical negligence. An obstetrical team, including an OB-GYN, nurses and technicians, owes every patient a duty of care.

Pursue Help For Your Child After A Louisville Birth Injury Has Resulted In Lasting Harm

You and your child may be eligible for compensation if:

• A fetal monitor was not used correctly or was ignored during labor – and your baby suffered a hypoxic brain injury.
• Risk factors such as preeclampsia were not diagnosed during prenatal care, and preventive actions such as a C-section were not planned for or carried out.
• A home birth service failed to plan for emergency transfers to a hospital in case of unexpected complications during labor or delivery.
• Your premature infant went blind because of improper overdosing of oxygen in an incubator.
• Your child has spasms or poor muscle control because of cerebral palsy occurring after an OB-GYN failed to deliver your baby by C-section, as indicated.
• A high-risk condition visible after birth (such as jaundice) did not receive proper attention and care, and your baby suffered harm as a result.
