Bringing life into the world is arguably one of the most extraordinary things we can do and should be one of the best experiences in your life. Unfortunately, there are risks with pregnancy and birth. It is vital that physicians, nurses, and hospital staff follow recognized standards of care in treating mothers and children during pregnancy, during birth, and after delivery.

Failing to abide by these standards of care can lead to potentially catastrophic injuries to mothers and newborns. Some of the most common injuries during childbirth involving negligence include:

Brain Damage
Shoulder Dystocia / Brachial Plexus Injuries
Cerebral Palsy
Head Injuries from Forceps or Vacuums
Nerve Injuries or Paralysis
