New York Umbilical Cord Entrapment Lawyers
Our medical malpractice team has substantial experience with cases involving birth injuries. Our New York birth injury attorneys have handled cases involving cerebral palsy, brain damage and erbs palsy.
Birth injuries can occur to both the newborn and mother when substandard care is administered. Birth injuries can occur during pregnancy, during the process of birth and during infancy. Cerebral palsy is a permanent and irreversible crippling condition that affects the brain and the central nervous system of an infant or young child. Our lawyers who handle cerebral palsy cases have successfully represented mothers and their children who have been injured through medical negligence that occurred at birth. Birth injuries are often caused when there is a lack of oxygen to the baby during the birthing process. Oxygen deprivation commonly occurs when the umbilical cord is compressed or twisted in the birth process.
If your child has suffered an injury due to improper care during your pregnancy or at the time of your delivery, the New York birth injury lawyers at Wingate, Russotti & Shapiro, L.L.P., would like to meet with you. Please call our office at 212-986-7353 to set up an appointment to discuss your case.
