Are Birth Injury Cases Difficult to Win?
Yes, in fact, they are. That’s because there’s usually a thin line between injuries caused by mistakes and those that occur naturally. Take cerebral palsy as an example. This is the kind of condition that could be acquired while the baby is still developing in the womb or due to someone’s mistake during the birth process. Determining whether such a condition was caused naturally or acquired during birth can be challenging.
What Do I Need to Prove My Case?
You can play a vital role in proving liability by gathering crucial evidence such as photos and videos, medical records and doctor’s reports, and documenting everything from the child’s date of birth. While that may not be all that’s needed to win the case, it can help guide your attorney on the areas to look at when investigating the case.
Who Can Be Held Liable?
Liability for birth injuries can swing in either direction. Depending on how your case unfolds, you may be able to take legal action against nurses, doctors, midwives, or even the healthcare facility.
What Damages Can I Recover?
One of the things we’ll look at is how exactly the injury happened and its impact on your loved one’s life. This will help us determine the scope of injury and the damages you may be able to recover. That said, plaintiffs in such cases have been able to recover medical expenses, lost wages (in the case of parents taking time off work to take care of their loved ones), reduced quality of life, pain and suffering, and more.
