Investigating Birth Injuries and Delivery Trauma
After the birth of a child, it can be devastating to discover that your newborn has been injured or suffered a permanent disability. In the most severe cases, trauma during delivery can result in accidental death. At Hance & Srinivasan, P.L.L.C., in Louisville, Kentucky, our attorneys are experienced in the investigation in birth defects, birth injuries and wrongful death caused by medical negligence. We will work strategically to protect your rights, identify responsible parties or entities, and aggressively pursue compensation for your injuries or losses.
Was the Injury Caused by Medical Malpractice?
One of the most critical questions in birth injury cases is whether a nurse, doctor or hospital was responsible for the injury or death. These cases can be complicated because it is not always clear what exactly caused the injury and whether it could have been prevented.
In such cases, our Louisville birth injury attorneys collaborate with experts who can examine medical documentation and the surrounding circumstances of your case to determine the cause of the injury. Our experience includes cases involving:
- Cerebral palsy
- Erb's palsy
- Shoulder dystocia
- Cephalohematoma
- Group B streptococcus
- Wrongful death
Recovering for Justice and Long-Term Support for Your Child
In many birth injury malpractice cases, families are left with a long-term burden of caring for their disabled child. We approach settlements and verdicts with a focus on both your immediate compensation and long-term security for your family. Medical costs, care needs, rehabilitation and learning needs can be accounted for through the litigation process, and we will strive to ensure that you collect the full compensation you are entitled to.
