A birth injury is an impairment of the infant’s body function or structure due to adverse influences that occurred at birth. Birth injuries usually result in trauma suffered by an infant during labor and delivery. Medical doctors must monitor the mother and child throughout labor and delivery for possible complications resulting from irregularities that may result in impairment. Should the doctor fail to properly monitor or respond during the labor and delivery, he may be considered negligent and liable for damages. If you or someone you know has suffered a birth injury, such as Erb palsy Brachial Plexus (shoulder dystocia) brain injury or Cerebral Palsy you may be entitled to monetary compensation.
