Getting Answers If Your Child Suffered a Birth Injury
Medical malpractice lawyers
When parents come to our law office with a young child who has a disability — cerebral palsy, Erb's palsy or brachial plexus injury — what they want first and foremost are answers:
- How did this happen to my child?
- Could this disability have been avoided?
- If there was fault, whose fault was it?
- What can be done to help my child now?
If the child's birth injury is very serious or an infant died, parents may feel determined to make sure no other child and family suffers as they have. They may look to a medical malpractice lawsuit as a way to achieve justice while holding a doctor or hospital accountable for the negligence that has caused their loss.
The birth injury attorneys of Denner Pellegrino, LLP, are committed to helping the smallest victims of medical malpractice — infants and children who have suffered birth injuries — as well as parents whose children have disabilities or who have lost a child. Our firm has a long record of success in medical malpractice cases and a dedicated team of attorneys with extensive experience handling them.
To speak to a lawyer at one of our offices in Boston, Springfield, Providence or New York City, contact the law offices of Denner Pellegrino, LLP, online or call toll free 1-866-348-0900. Your initial consultation is free, and you pay no attorneys' fees unless we recover money for you in your birth injury claim.
How a medical malpractice claim could help your child
While birth injuries are emotionally devastating to family members, children have their whole lives ahead of them. With physical and occupational therapy, educational services, adaptive equipment, financial resources and loving care, your child can be helped to reach his or her highest potential. A financial settlement can help you provide for your child's needs today and throughout your child's life.
How Denner Pellegrino can help
One of the advantages of working with a large law firm is the confidence you can have in the extensive resources and reach of the firm:
- Our staff includes people with backgrounds in science and medicine. We understand complex medical issues and can communicate them clearly so a jury can understand, too.
- We work with an extensive network of medical experts — cardiologists, orthopedists, neurologists — who can examine clients' files and determine when standard practices were not followed.
- We work with doctors, therapists and life planners to understand the child's medical condition today, the expectation for his or her abilities in the future, and long-term care needs.
