What is a Brachial plexus birth injury lawsuit?  

A brachial plexus birth injury lawsuit is a claim for compensation when a child suffers nerve damage during delivery. Because of the nerve damage, a child may suffer muscle weakness or paralysis of the arm. In some cases, brachial plexus is a preventable birth injury. If your child has suffered this kind of injury, you may have grounds to bring a brachial plexus birth injury lawsuit. We invite you to meet with our attorneys for a confidential consultation about your child’s case.  

What can my child receive in a birth injury lawsuit case?

The purpose of compensation in a birth injury claim is to compensate your child for the ways their life has changed. Expenses like future medical care are a part of the claim. Pain and suffering is an important part of the claim, too. It’s important to evaluate any settlement proposal in order to make sure that it accurately represents both current and future needs and suffering. 

Why bring a birth injury claim? 

There are two purposes to a birth injury lawsuit case. First, and most importantly, you want to receive financial compensation on behalf of your child. The injuries that your child endures may change their life for years to come. They may be unable to attend to their basic care needs. They may be unable to work. Your child needs and deserves financial compensation.   

Our first goal in bringing your case is identifying the value of your case and pursuing it. We want your child to get justice. In addition to claiming financial compensation, we want to make sure to structure the child’s compensation in a way that helps them years into the future. Bringing a claim with the help of our birth injury attorneys in Miami can give you peace of mind to know that your child’s future is in good hands. 

The other purpose in a birth injury legal claim is to hold those accountable who caused the birth injury. A child’s injury can be so heart-wrenching because it may have been preventable. We work to demonstrate fault for the injuries in hopes of making the medical care system better for everyone and achieving some measure of justice for your family.
