Pottsville And Wyomissing Attorneys For Delivery Room Errors

A birth injury is defined as any harm that comes to the mother or newborn during the delivery process. Although some injuries may heal and cause little if any permanent damage to a child, every birth injury should be taken seriously by the medical profession.

Did a serious birth injury at a Pennsylvania hospital cause a lifelong impact on your child?

In Pottsville, Schuylkill County, Berks County and surrounding areas, the experienced and client committed medical malpractice attorneys of Fanelli, Evans & Patel, P.C. can help. If your child suffered a life-altering birth injury that will not get better in time due to physician or nursing negligence in the delivery room, we are dedicated to protecting your legal rights.

Fanelli, Evans & Patel, P.C. — Decades Of Experience, Reputation For Results In Medical Malpractice Cases

We have the answers and results you deserve when you or your child is the victim of:

  • Delivery errors causing cerebral palsy
  • Improper prenatal care
  • Premature delivery
  • Shoulder dystocia, brachial plexus and Erb’s palsy
  • Vacuum extractor and forceps injuries

Shoulder dystocia is a permanent condition caused by damage to the nerves in a child’s shoulder during the delivery process. Erb’s palsy may be caused by a doctor’s failure to perform medically accepted procedures during delivery. Cerebral palsy is a devastating condition caused by permanent damage to the nervous system or brain. Hypoxia results from oxygen deprivation during delivery.

Regardless of what kind of negligence you encountered in your delivery room, if you suspect that your child’s birth injury was avoidable, our medical malpractice lawyers will review staff notes of the birthing process and access the opinions and findings of medical specialists, including expert obstetricians. If we feel that we can bring a medical malpractice lawsuit, our law firm will strive to hold the providers and hospital accountable for their errors and deal with insurers to recover the compensation you must have for your child’s medical needs.
