We are so saddened to hear about your baby's birth injury. Although brain injuries at birth do sometimes occur for no apparent reason, it could be possible that your infant suffered at the hands of a negligent doctor.
Birth injuries in Florida are commonly caused by negligent medical professionals. In order to determine if your doctor was careless in your case, we would have to review your records and talk to nurses and the other healthcare staff that was present at the time of your delivery.
Doctors are required to follow proper medical procedures during childbirth, which include:
-
Responding swiftly to any childbirth complications, such as a drop in heart rate
-
Acting quickly and properly when the umbilical cord is wrapped around the baby's neck
-
Using vacuum extractors and forceps carefully, with great skill, and only when needed
-
Responding to fetal distress quickly and precisely
-
Ordering a C-section in a timely manner
