When Joy Turns to Crisis: Fighting for Families After Birth Injuries
The birth of a child should be a joyful milestone, but when medical negligence leads to a preventable birth injury, families are left facing fear, uncertainty, and unexpected challenges.
In Houston’s busy hospitals and delivery centers, even a single mistake, whether during pregnancy, labor, delivery, or immediate neonatal care, can cause lasting harm to a mother or child.
Birth injuries can result in significant medical needs, long-term therapy, and overwhelming financial strain. Conditions such as cerebral palsy, Erb’s palsy, nerve damage, oxygen deprivation, and maternal injuries may all stem from failures to monitor, diagnose, or appropriately respond to complications. Texas law allows families to pursue compensation when healthcare providers fail to meet the accepted standard of care, but these cases are complex and often time-sensitive.
If you believe medical negligence played a role in your child’s injury, you don’t have to navigate this alone. A Houston birth injury attorney can help investigate what happened, work with medical experts, and fight to hold negligent providers accountable.

- Facial Paralysis;

Hiring a Birth Injury Attorney
Birth injury lawsuits can be complex, so it’s important to hire an attorney who specializes in handling these cases. A birth injury attorney can identify the cause of your baby’s injury and hold the negligent party accountable.
At Morgan & Morgan, our Houston attorneys work alongside medical professionals and other experts to determine what caused your child’s injury. We can examine medical records and diagnostic tests, as well as other pertinent evidence. If our medical experts believe that the doctor failed to meet accepted standards of care when delivering your child, you may be eligible to file a birth injury lawsuit.
Hiring an attorney affords you your best opportunity at recovering the compensation you deserve for your hardship. We believe you deserve nothing less than full justice, and our lawyers won’t settle for anything less than full and fair compensation.
With over 1,000 attorneys nationwide, Morgan & Morgan has the resources to take on the biggest bullies and win. We have a proven track record with over $25 billion recovered for our clients, and we may be able to help you, too.
What’s more, when you hire Morgan & Morgan, you don’t have to worry about expensive hourly fees or upfront costs. Because we operate on a contingency-fee model, we only get paid if we win for you.
