Bringing a child into the world should be a joyous experience. Sadly, when doctors and other medical professionals make critical errors during the delivery process, it can leave your newborn with injuries that, in some cases, can last their entire lives.

No matter the type or severity your newborn suffers during birth, the birth injury lawyers of Keefe, Keefe & Unsell, P.C., are here to hold medical professionals accountable for their carelessness and aggressively pursue the compensation and justice you deserve.

What Are Birth Injuries? And What Can Cause Them?

A birth injury is a physical or developmental injury that a newborn can sustain during or shortly after the delivery process. Alongside medical negligence, a lot of different factors can contribute to the cause of a birth injury, such as:

• Prolonged or difficult labor
• The baby lying in an abnormal position in the womb
• The baby has a large head
• The baby is too big for the birth canal
• Placental issues
• Being born prematurely

Whether newborns suffer a brachial plexus injury, develop cerebral palsy or face other complications, these can all present long-term issues for your child. Our attorneys understand how difficult this may be for you, which is why we approach each case we handle with the care and compassion it deserves.
