Infant Cerebral Palsy Overview

Although emotional and dramatic, childbirth is usually a pretty routine process from a medical perspective. But in some cases, what should be routine becomes traumatic when birth injuries result in infant cerebral palsy. Could this defect have been prevented? And, if so, who is responsible?

Cogan & McNabola, P.C., a personal injury law firm located in Chicago, Illinois, can help deal with legal matters so you can focus on caring for your child. Our first step is to meet with you to fully understand what happened. This will help us build our strategy for preparing your case against the hospital and its insurance company.

Understanding the Cause of Cerebral Palsy

Cerebral palsy can be caused by nurses and doctors failing to identify and respond to fetal distress. If a baby's heart rate is not properly monitored before birth, a lower oxygen supply to the brain can go unnoticed. This can result in an anoxic brain injury, which then causes cerebral palsy.

Our attorneys work with medical experts to expose the medical negligence of doctors, nurses, and attending staff in the delivery room. We will fully examine the circumstances surrounding your case and consult with medical experts to help build a solid case on your behalf. After more than 25 years in the field of medical malpractice law, we are skilled negotiators and accomplished trail lawyers with excellent track records.

If you have a child who has cerebral palsy caused by medical negligence, learn more about how our lawyers can help. Contact our firm today at 312-629-2900 or toll free 800-704-2900 to schedule a free initial consultation.
