Texas Birth Injuries
Has your baby suffered a birth injury due to the negligence of a professional? The birth of a child is perhaps one of the happiest moments in the life of a parent. This wonderful event is surrounded by joy, expectations, and excitement. Everything can change, though, if the infant sustains birth injuries. When an unfortunate situation like this arises, it usually subjects both the child and its parents to a lifetime of suffering, frustration, and anguish. This circumstance is aggravated even more when the responsibility falls on a doctor or health care professional in which a couple deposited their full trust. This is where a Texas birth injury attorney can help.

Negligence can occur either during the mother’s pregnancy, or during the actual delivery. Sometimes careless doctors fail to detect and diagnose problems with the child while still in the womb. Other times, the doctor makes a serious mistake while the baby is being born, which will haunt the child and its parents forever. This happens in approximately 0.5% of all births in the United States. Among the most common birth injuries, you will find:
- Infant head trauma
- Cerebral palsy
- Cephalohematoma
- Caput Succedaneum
- Facial Nerve Palsy
- Erb’s palsy
Given that most parents have full confidence in their doctors, many times a mother will blame herself for her baby’s birth injury. This can be very traumatic and is totally unwarranted. A health professional has a duty to safeguard its patients’ health and safety, so malpractice should not be tolerated. Still, a case of negligence or malpractice may be very hard to prove. This is precisely why you should contact an experienced Texas birth injury attorney with sufficient knowledge to guide you through this complex process. By doing so you can find out what your rights are, and receive the compensation you deserve.
