When Your Child is the Victim of a Birth Injury
A birth injury can be one of the most devastating things that happens to a family because it affects the injured child for the rest of his or her life. If your child has been injured during prenatal care, labor or delivery, taking legal action is often a smart decision.
At the Patrick E. Knie Law Offices, in Spartanburg, South Carolina, I represent families in medical malpractice actions, including birth injury cases. My clients find that a legal settlement or jury verdict can help provide resources needed to provide care for a child.
As an attorney, I represent families whose children have experienced a wide range of birth injuries:
- Oxygen deprivation
- Facial paralysis
- Brachial plexus palsy
- Fractures
- Cerebral palsy
- Shoulder dystocia
- Failure to recognize fetal trauma
Every bad medical result is not medical malpractice or medical negligence. This can be a difficult thing for families to hear. However, It's been my experience that putting off bad news is not necessarily for the best. I talk honestly with my clients and try not to give them false hope when a situation is not favorable for litigation.
