How Much Compensation Can I Seek In A Florida Birth Injury Claim
Many factors can influence how much you receive in a birth injury case. Our legal team can help you reach a fair settlement outside of court. However, we will represent you in a lawsuit if we cannot settle your case.
We will review your damages to determine how much compensation to seek in your case. For instance, you could recover compensation for the following:
- Economic damages: Any monetary loss you sustained because of the birth injury. Examples include medical care costs, physical therapy costs, or lost income while you cared for your child. In addition, we could calculate the lifelong costs of caring for a disabled child.
- Noneconomic damages: Your child might feel physical pain or emotional distress because of the injury they sustained. If so, you could seek compensation for noneconomic damages.
Damages from a birth injury could become complicated because it’s difficult to determine how long your child will suffer from issues related to their injury. Thus, our attorneys can speak to medical experts to gain a clearer picture. Then, we can prove the impacts this injury could have on your child.
Common Birth Injuries Sustained In Florida
Birth injuries can cause children to grow up dealing with issues. For example, they could miss out on playing sports or participating in activities other children can. Depending on the type of injury they sustain, it could affect their life significantly.
Types of birth injuries newborns could sustain include the following:
- Cerebral palsy: A movement disorder that could cause stiff muscles, uncontrollable movements, or poor balance and coordination. A newborn could develop cerebral palsy if a doctor or nurse acts negligently during delivery.
- Brachial plexus injuries: The brachial plexus sends signals from the spinal cord to the shoulders through a network of nerves. When these nerves get compressed or stretched, an injury could occur. Unfortunately, this injury can occur when a newborn undergoes a problematic birth. Thus, medical professionals must monitor babies to minimize the risk of sustaining this injury.
- Cephalohematoma: This injury occurs when blood collects between the scalp and skull due to damaged blood vessels during delivery. A bulge on the top of the baby’s head could develop. When babies sustain this injury, they could require additional treatment, such as blood transfusions, to relieve the issue.
Did the medical professionals who oversaw your pregnancy and delivery act negligently? Regardless of the birth injury your child sustained, we’ll help you seek compensation for your losses.
