Birth Injuries to Child

New York Children's Birth Injuries Attorney

For any mother, a birth injury is devastating. When you are expecting, you take steps to ensure your health and the health of your baby by the foods you eat, the elements you are exposed to, and even the activities you participate in. It can be horrifying to discover that all of this care became irrelevant when your child was in the hands of a negligent doctor. At Kramer & Dunleavy, LLP, we take on the cases that touch women's lives most intimately and will work to see your family restored and financially compensated for the losses suffered by your family and your child.

Contact our offices to learn more about birth injuries, doctor negligence, and your rights to recovery.

When your baby is injured during birth, you deserve to assert your rights against every responsible party. We will work to see your family and child compensated for your suffering and loss.

Birth injuries often occur when the infant is deprived of oxygen, causing brain damage. If a healthcare provider does not promptly deliver a baby who is in distress; or if a baby is not timely and properly resuscitated after being born, there is a possibility that the resulting lack of oxygen will cause serious brain damage. Babies can also be injured when they are improperly delivered, or when they are not properly oxygenated during surgery.

Please contact us immediately if your child has suffered any of the following birth injuries:
