Fighting To Protect Children’s Futures In New York City Birth Injury Claims

Expectant mothers and their unborn children require attentive care at every stage of the pregnancy and delivery as well as post-natal care after the child has been born. Doctors and every member of their staffs share in the responsibility to take all necessary steps to ensure that mother and child are in good health at all times and to promptly address any issues that may arise.

Any failure in this responsibility can result in complications with the pregnancy that could have devastating consequences. When errors are made, critical indicators are missed or the duty of care goes unfulfilled, negligent medical professionals can be held accountable for any harm suffered by the mother or her child. These are complex and emotional cases. Be sure that you have an experienced New York City birth injury lawyer behind you from the start.

We obtained $7 million in damages for an infant in a case against Bellevue Hospital Center and the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation (HHC). In a case involving a delay in the delivery of the child and mismanagement of shoulder dystocia, the child suffered severe brain damage resulting in cerebral palsy, a broken arm and serious nerve damage to the brachial plexus.
