Birth Injury Cases in Florida:

Although most Florida health care providers do great work, mistakes can be made that have adverse effects during a birth. Sometimes those effects can linger for the rest of a child’s life as well as impact the parents. Birth injuries such as cerebral palsy, Erb’s palsy, shoulder dystocia, and brachial plexus can happen when an omission or negligent act by a doctor or other type of medical professional occurs resulting in harm to the baby during birth. Medical malpractice laws are designed to protect the rights of babies and their parents to pursue compensation if the birth injury is the result of negligence.
