MEDICAL NEGLIGENCE:
Cerebral Palsy Claims
Approximately 1800 children diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy every year. Many of these cases could have been prevented.
Childbirth should be one of the happiest times in life. Unfortunately, sometimes things go wrong. Cerebral Palsy is a developmental disorder and a leading cause of disability in young children - sometimes resulting from medical negligence.
Cerebral Palsy generally refers to a group of lifelong conditions affecting movement and co-ordination caused by problems with the brain before, during or soon after birth. Each case of CP is unique to the individual. The degree to which a brain injury affects a child’s motor functioning and intellectual abilities is highly dependent on the nature of the brain injury, the damage sustained and how severe it is. To determine if medical negligence was a cause of Cerebral Palsy, it is likely that we’ll need to review the notes and records of the health professionals involved in the delivery and care of your baby.
If Cerebral Palsy has affected you, we are here to guide you through the claims process, alleviating unnecessary worry during a stressful time. We are a leading medical negligence firm, and you can rest assured we’ll bring the best legal minds to your case. Liability will typically arise with: midwifery issues, obstetric issues, paediatric issues before or at the time of delivery; or an untreated viral or bacterial infection.
