An experienced birth injury attorney should be consulted immediately after birth if your infant has suffered a birth trauma and you suspect those injuries were caused by medical negligence.

Some common types of birth injuries include:

Skin irritations
Temporary paralysis; fractured collar bone; fractured arm
Cerebral Palsy Erb's Palsy and Brachial Plexus Palsy
Brain damage, Traumatic brain injury
Epilepsy, seizures and mental retardation.
  (These brain injuries are caused by oxygen deprivation or bleeding inside the brain from trauma during pregnancy, labor or delivery.)

Unfortunately, doctors and hospitals will almost never admit fault...

Unfortunately, doctors and hospitals will almost never admit fault or offer to pay reasonable damages to cover even the likely economic loss from an injury. A birth injury attorney can help with an appropriate discovery to know whether there is a case or not.

Therefore, it is extremely crucial to consult an experienced birth injury attorney early because records and other information that are important to knowing whether negligence occurred might be lost over time. Frequently hospitals and doctors will destroy or lose records within months of the delivery. Also, important witnesses such as nurses and therapists will forget details or move, making it difficult to recover essential facts. Further, almost any time there is a bad result to a patient, the hospital personnel and doctors will meet with their own lawyers to begin formulating a strategy to defend any potential case. Time is an important ally to both sides.
