Birth injuries may cause a kid to suffer from various problems that can leave them unable for the rest of their life.

We then collaborate with experts to build the best possible case and get our clients’ compensation.
Our company has built a solid reputation for success by prioritising our clients and their situations. We have proved that we have what it takes to hold negligent parties responsible for their key mistakes and win full and equitable compensation on behalf of victims and their families, thanks to our expertise, resources, and devotion to clients.

How Attorney Group
Can Help You?
Even if you sense anything is wrong with your kid, the formal medical diagnosis may be devastating. It might alter your expectations for your child’s future and make your days anxious.
It’s not simple to take on huge medical institutions and well-known or famous physicians. A representative from the insurance company may call you to rapidly resolve the matter. You may be tempted to accept their offer at this moment of extreme stress. Instead of speaking with insurance personnel, please call our office.
An insurance company’s first settlement offer is most usually the lowest sum they are prepared to pay. Their major concerns are with their customer and their own company’s bottom line. Representatives from insurance companies will use high-pressure methods to get you to accept their offer. Do not sign any paperwork. If you accept their offer, you may forfeit your ability to file a civil lawsuit if your child’s illness worsens.
Our lawyers are well-versed in the strategies used by insurance companies to pay as little as possible. We fight hard for the recompense that our clients are entitled to. At the same time, we treat our customers with the utmost respect. Our objective is to achieve the greatest possible result for you and your kid.
Our company has received more than $100 million in judgments and settlements over the previous 20 years.
Many of our victories have occurred as a result of jury verdicts, since, unlike other lawyers, we never hesitate to take a case to trial if it is required to get the best possible result.
You don’t have to go through this by yourself.

Possible Compensation For Birth Accident Injury
You may be eligible to damages for your child’s birth injuries, while each personal injury case is different. You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenditures, lost earnings, and pain and suffering, depending on the specifics of your case.
The majority of personal injury claims are settled outside of court. We are prepared to go to trial if we are unable to get the compensation you deserve outside of court. Our staff at has extensive expertise presenting matters to jurors. We can draw on this knowledge to help you get the best possible result in your case.
In a legal action, there are two sorts of damages: economic and non-economic losses.
- Economic damages – Economic damages are those that are simple to calculate and comprehend for juries. Medical costs are one kind of financial loss. Economic damages might include any expenditures linked with your child’s care.
Non-economic damages — These forms of losses are less palpable and difficult to quantify. - Non-economic damages include things like pain and suffering. Non-economic damages include the loss of a child’s quality of life that they would have had if they hadn’t been impaired.
The expenditures of parenting a kid with special needs might easily surpass your own budget. Cerebral palsy, for example, might need years of treatment, medication, and medical visits. Personal care in a private institution or with an in-home health assistant may be required for children with severe cerebral palsy.
If your kid is disabled as a consequence of a birth accident, you may be eligible to financial compensation. No one should be responsible for costs incurred as a consequence of a medical mistake or neglect. Call us to learn more about how our legal team can assist you in pursuing potential compensation.
The cornerstone to every personal injury lawsuit is to properly examine and record what happened and who was to blame. Medical documents, witness accounts, foetal monitoring videos, lab findings, doctor visit records, and a variety of other types of evidence will all need to be obtained and examined rapidly. We may pursue a medical malpractice lawsuit if we have enough evidence to establish that your baby’s harm was caused by carelessness.
In California, the statute of limitations for medical malpractice lawsuits is stated in Section 340.5 of the Code of Civil Procedure. In California, injuries to children under the age of six must be reported within three years or before the kid turns eight, whichever comes first. In addition, California’s Code of Civil Procedure 340.4 has a particular “birth injury” statute of limitations. However, case law has held that CCP 340.5’s statute of limitations is relevant.
The Superior Courts in California use a “quick track” mechanism to process cases. 80 percent of cases must be addressed within 12 months, 90 percent within 18 months, and all cases must be settled within 24 months under this method. Most instances do not resolve until a comprehensive neurological examination can be done since determining the long-term requirements of wounded newborns is typically difficult until they are at least 3 years old.
A birth injury is not a simple matter. It is often one of the hardest types of malpractice to prove. Many people are involved in a birth injury lawsuit such as nurses, anesthesiologists, obstetricians and midwives, and some cases have been extended to include an entire hospital. But there is always the question of who the lawsuit should focus on. This is why it is very important to find a lawyer who is experienced when it comes to birth injuries suits.
