As a firm committed to serving justice, Carlson Bier is a legal companion you can trust in Illinois. Particularly in the sphere of personal injury law, we bring our vast expertise and compassionate approach to help countless families navigate the challenging circumstances of birth injuries. Birth injuries are traumatic occurrences that not only come with heavy emotional burdens but also extensive medical expenses. Our diligent team at Carlson Bier works relentlessly every day to uphold the rights of affected families through skilled representation.
Birth injuries refer to harm sustained by an infant before, during, or just after childbirth. These could result from several possible causes such as medical negligence or obstetric malpractice – situations where healthcare providers fail to provide standard care owed to both mother and child. Typical examples include failure to timely order a cesarean section, improper use of delivery tools like forceps/vacuum and incorrect medication dosage.
Understandably, distinguishing different types of birth injuries may be daunting; hence we have provided some key classifications below:
– Cerebral Palsy: This results from damage to an infant’s brain causing motor function impairment.
– Neonatal Encephalopathy: This is brain dysfunction due to lack of oxygen supply during delivery.
– Perinatal Asphyxia: A condition resulting from decreased blood flow or insufficient oxygen levels leading to complications like organ failure.
– Brachial Plexus Injury (Erb’s Palsy): This refers to nerve damage impacting arm movement.
If your child suffered such birth injuries due to healthcare provider negligence or hospital mismanagement, they should be held accountable for their actions and you deserve compensation for all the pain endured -something which no family should go through alone.
Carlson Bier pledges relentless dedication towards investigating your case thoroughly – collecting precise facts about how the incident occurred, identifying culpable parties and determining what cardiovascular techniques were breached during childbirth. Beyond fact-finding, we then move forward with filing lawsuits against responsible parties – whether individual practitioners, hospital staff or the entire medical facility.
A potent mix of tireless legwork, sharp negotiation skills and a profound understanding of Illinois injury law are just some factors that set our team apart. We have procured millions in settlements for families burdened with birth injuries – offering financial relief to cater to their lifelong needs such as special education programs, in-home care and ongoing therapy sessions.
However, it’s not just about pursuing litigation; Carlson Bier is equally committed to equipping you with knowledge about your rights according to personal injury law. A critical point you must understand is the Statute of Limitations which stipulates an expiry period for filing lawsuits after injury – typically two years in Illinois from when the incident occurred or was discovered.
Do remember: The better informed you are, the more empowered you’ll be in exercising your legal rights effectively. No family should feel alone or vulnerable while dealing with such life-altering scenarios and this belief forms the core of our mission at Carlson Bier.
While emotionally arduous and legally challenging, seeking compensation for birth injuries can significantly alleviate overwhelming financial stress associated with long-term care expenses. However complex these situations may seem initially – know that there’s a source of support readily available right here.
