The negligence of a doctor during childbirth could lead to permanent birth injuries that require ongoing medical attention. The filing of a lawsuit to secure financial compensation can help parents pay for their child's ongoing medical treatments and improve their quality of life.
Legally proving medical malpractice requires solid evidence. Lawyers establish a case through examining medical records and identifying all potentially liable parties.

Birth injuries can affect the mother or the baby. Cephalohematoma can be a birth injury that occurs when blood beneath the cranium causes a bump to rise. This could be caused by forceps. Subgaleal hemorrhage is more serious and involves blood under the scalp.
Other injuries can include brain trauma from the lack of oxygen as well as fractured skull bones. A medical malpractice lawsuit may also be a source of claims for other damages, such as economic and non-economic damages for pain & suffering and future loss of income. Some claims also seek punitive damages designed to penalize defendants for committing carelessness or disregard for a patient's life.
A good lawyer will assist parents to obtain and review medical records quickly and frequently. This decreases the chances that records could be lost or destroyed. A lawyer can also send an array of demands to the malpractice insurer for the hospital and the doctor to request an agreement. A demand package usually includes an explanation of the accident and how it affected the baby and family. A malpractice lawyer will usually respond with a settlement offer or decline to settle.
Statute of Limitations
If you suspect your child was injured at birth due to medical malpractice, you must seek medical records as soon as is possible.

A doctor or any other medical professional could make a number of errors during labor and delivery. Some of these mistakes could result in serious injuries, for example, an absence of oxygen during the birth process (hypoxia). Medical malpractice could be the result of a medical professional failing to act correctly in these critical moments.
In the majority of cases, victims are given three years from the time the negligence was committed or not done to make a claim for medical malpractice. However, New York law includes an exception that extends this deadline to 10 years for lawsuits which involve children.
Since minors aren't able to sue on their own, a parent or legal guardian is likely to be required to file the claim on behalf of the minor.

It is important to show that the medical professional made an unwise decision or acted in recklessness. It is not unusual for doctors to deny accusations of medical malpractice.
