FLORIDA BIRTH INJURY ATTORNEY

Serving Lakeland, St. Petersburg, Sarasota, New Port Richey and Clearwater

Statistics have found that six in every 1,000 infants are born with a birth injury in the United States. Some injuries may result from complications in difficult pregnancies, but other injuries may be caused by medical negligence and inexperience. Because birthing can be a delicate process, the failure of a nurse or physician to handle their duties with a proper level of care and attention could have catastrophic consequences. The Florida Law Group serves many cities throughout Florida. Call our firm today!

Medical Negligence with Catastrophic Consequences

Birth injury can result from a number of common negligent actions, such as:

  • Administering dangerous medication/dosage
  • Failing to address fetal distress
  • Failing to supply oxygen to the infant
  • Failing to treat an infection
  • Incorrectly using vacuum/forceps
  • Utilizing unnecessary amounts of force

These preventable mistakes made by attending nurses and obstetricians may increase risks of birth injury exponentially. Infants could suffer severe or irreparable physical trauma that may require lifelong medical treatment and therapy. Florida law allows for victims of medical negligence to pursue claims in order to receive compensation.
