Washington Birth Injury Litigation

Understanding your Options in the Event of a Birth Injury

Have you been a victim of medical malpractice, such as a birth injury? D'Amore Law Group, P.C. understands the difficult situation you may now be faced with if your child has been injured during birth due to health care provider recklessness.  Medical bills are expensive, and you may see mounting costs in the future as many injuries require surgical correction and therapy.  We can help you to pursue a medical malpractice lawsuit to obtain compensation and ensure your child receives the care they need.

Health Care Provider Negligence

There are laws in place that require that doctors provide an acceptable standard of care and follow appropriate procedures during all medical treatment, including birth.  Negligent behavior can include the failure of a health care provider to warn the mother of potential risks during pregnancy, and the failure to act appropriately upon these risks should they become a reality.

Our medical malpractice lawyers will work to establish your case and prove that your doctor or medical provider acted inappropriately in their treatment of your existing risk or obstetric emergency, such as shoulder dystocia.  It is our main concern to obtain the appropriate amount in damages to cover your family for any expenses associated with the injury and its treatment, so that your child can have the greatest chance of leading a normal life.

Your Options

In the event of medical malpractice, it helps to understand the options that are available to you.  If you wish to pursue an Washington birth injury lawsuit, your rights to do so are protected by law.  Our attorneys will work with you to establish liability (who is responsible for the injury?) and to back up this claim with solid evidence. There is a possibility that the medical defendant may choose to offer a settlement.  There is also a possibility that there will be a need for trial.  As medical malpractice litigation attorneys, we can provide guidance and representation for both possible situations.
