Birth Injury

Birth Injury

Having a child should be a joyous experience. But if a doctor, obstetrician, midwife, or other medical professional makes a mistake, the child can suffer serious and debilitating injury. Suddenly joy is mixed with worry, confusion, and frustration. Medical facilities, hospitals, and other healthcare professionals may try to admit little or no responsibility for their mistakes.

A birth injury can mean a lifetime of medical treatments and disability. The family of a child harmed by a Doctor’s mistake deserves compensation for any past and future expenses incurred as a result of medical malpractice and negligence. The Arnette Law Firm will fight for the compensation your family deserves.
