Birth Injuries

If your child suffered a birth trauma resulting in long term damage and you suspect medical malpractice may have occurred, it is recommended to obtain a legal opinion as soon as possible. At O’Hare Parnagian LLP we know how overwhelming the consequences of birth injuries can be. The arrival of a new baby is supposed to be a wonderful and joyous occasion but if a baby is injured during birth, that joy is instead replaced with worry for your child’s future, discussion about potential surgery, medical appointments, restricted mobility, and medical expenses.
