Bibb County Erb's Palsy and Cerebral Palsy Injury Lawyer
Birth injuries may be caused by the medical malpractice, nurses and hospital staff. Birth injuries often occur because medical professionals fail to properly recognize signs of fetal distress. Another common cause of birth injuries is a failure to properly deliver babies, including a failure to timely perform a C-section procedure.
When medical professionals fail to provide appropriate care, serious consequences may ensue. Birth injuries that may result from medical negligence include cerebral palsy and Erb's palsy. In the most severe cases, a baby or mother may suffer fatal injuries.
If you need to speak with an experienced medical malpractice lawyer about a birth injury that may have been caused by the negligence of a hospital or medical professional, contact the law office of Floyd Buford. We serve clients throughout Georgia in medical malpractice claims.
Cerebral Palsy and Erb's Palsy Legal Representation in South Central Georgia
Two of the most common types of birth injuries that may be caused by medical negligence are cerebral palsy and Erb's palsy. A baby may develop cerebral palsy if his or her brain is deprived of oxygen before or during the birth process. Hospitals have advanced electronic monitoring equipment that can help medical professionals identify signs of fetal distress. The best technology in the world is useless, however, if medical professionals fail to exercise reasonable care.
Erb's palsy is a paralysis of the arm due to nerve damage. If a doctor places too much stress on a baby's shoulders or pulls the baby's head and neck in the wrong fashion during delivery, a baby may develop Erb's palsy.
Parents who have children with cerebral palsy or Erb's palsy will be faced with tremendous medical bills and ongoing expenses associated with the care of their children.
