Many birth injuries cases involve a complex debate over medical errors versus malpractice. Our attorneys can help you discern the differences.
Costs of Treatment

Medical treatment for birth injuries can be very expensive. Compensation for birth injuries can help families pay for these expenses.

Many states have enacted medical indemnity funds to offer financial aid to families of children who suffer from birth injuries. These funds collect a portion of malpractice insurance premiums or require doctors and hospitals to contribute to an investment fund.

Punitive Damages

Once the attorney has identified the appropriate defendants, they have to gather and analyze evidence to back up their claims. They must show that the injuries caused by the medical professionals were not up to standards of care. The legal team also has to prove the costs associated with these injuries, referred to as "damages." This information can be both economic and non-economic in the sense that it is not a loss.
Economic losses are typically calculated by making estimates of the cost of the child's ongoing treatment, which may include long-term care facilities as well as other services. They can also include lost earnings if a traumatic event caused both or one parent to lose their job.
