The Connecticut Cerebral Palsy attorneys at Haymond Law understand that the birth of a child should be cause for celebration – but birth injuries can cause long-term pain and suffering instead. Experts estimate that as many as 3-5 babies in 1,000 are injured during labor and delivery, and while not all injuries are serious, cerebral palsy certainly is.

Cerebral palsy is a term used to describe severe problems with body movement and muscle coordination, caused by brain damage that may occur during fetal development, infancy or during labor and delivery. In some instances, cerebral palsy occurs despite the best attempts of the medical staff attending a birth, but it can also be caused by careless or inattentive healthcare providers.

Medical personnel caring for a pregnant patient are required to be alert to the warning signs of potential cerebral palsy risks during labor and delivery – and they must be prepared to take immediate action if the baby is in any harm. When doctors, nurses or midwives fail to recognize these danger signs promptly, a potentially healthy child can suffer brain damage instead.

If you believe your child's cerebral palsy was caused by medical error or negligence, contact the CT cerebral palsy lawyers at the Haymond Law Firm at 1-800-HAYMOND for a free evaluation.

Legal action cannot restore functionality to an injured child, but a successful settlement can make a difference in the quality of medical care and the quality of life that a child suffering from cerebral palsy can enjoy. The Connecticut cerebral palsy attorneys at Haymond Law have represented many families dealing with birth injuries, and they know how to handle each case with the care and attention necessary to obtain results.

Medical providers and hospitals will protect their legal interests in a medical malpractice case -- and so should you. The cerebral palsy attorneys at Haymond Law know how to evaluate your claim, negotiate with the responsible parties and argue the case effectively in court, if necessary.
