Birth Injuries Due to Medical Malpractice

Birth injuries can occur when a medical professional is negligent or fails to deliver the required standard of care. Some of the most common types of birth injuries are those that are caused by a lack of oxygen to the brain, which can result in permanent brain damage. Birth injuries can also be caused by trauma during delivery, such as when a doctor uses excessive force or fails to respond to complications that arise during labor.

Some of the most common types of birth injuries include:

  • Cerebral Palsy: Cerebral palsy is a group of disorders that affect a child’s ability to move and maintain balance and posture. It is often caused by damage to the brain during birth, which can result from oxygen deprivation, infections, or head trauma.
