Birth Injury Lawsuits
Birth-related medical mistakes can cause children to suffer permanent injuries that require a lifetime of care. A birth injury lawsuit could assist parents in paying for these costs.
However, pursuing this type of claim requires careful consideration of several aspects. An attorney can examine your case and determine whether you have an appropriate claim.
Damages
When a medical mistake leads to injury, the victim may seek compensation. A successful birth injury lawsuit can be able to cover the cost of future medical treatment, loss of income and more. The amount of damages awarded will depend on the nature and severity the injury.
A successful legal action is based on proving four essential elements: (1) that the medical professional did not act in accordance with the accepted procedures of the medical community for professionals with similar training and experience; (2) that this error caused injuries to the patient; (3) that the injuries were serious and (4) that there was evidence of damages. Your lawyer may review medical documents and consult with experts to determine whether your case meets the requirements.

In New York, however, midwives are supposed to assist in normal pregnancies, and to transfer high-risk pregnancies to a trained obstetrician. In these instances, the midwife's actions may be considered as malpractice when they are deemed irresponsible or negligent.
Statute of Limitations
