Why It Matters

When medical teams fail during labor and delivery, infants can suffer brain damage, paralysis, or lifelong disability. These cases deserve the utmost legal support.

Birth injury cases often turn on how fetal distress was monitored and how quickly the team responded with interventions like C-section. Records such as fetal heart tracings, timing of orders, and NICU notes help show whether delays or mistakes caused preventable harm.
