What Are the Most Common Causes of Birth Injuries?

During a normal delivery, a newborn can suffer a number of injuries, including:

• Cuts and scrapes from the delivery process
• Bruises from being pulled or squeezed
• Brachial plexus injuries, which damage the nerves that control the arm
• Shoulder dystocia, which occurs when the baby's shoulder gets stuck during delivery

If your newborn suffered any of these injuries during the delivery process, you may be eligible to file a claim against the hospital or medical professionals who oversaw your child's birth.

Recovering Compensation for Your Child's Injuries

The medical professionals who oversaw your newborn's birth may be liable for any injuries that occurred. Even if the delivery went as planned, your child may have suffered an injury due to an act of medical negligence. Our Honolulu birth injury lawyer can help you file a claim if your child was born with a birth defect or other injury during the delivery process.
