Birth Injuries

Florida Medical Malpractice Lawyers – Birth Injury

The birth of a child is a precious moment and should never be seen as routine by any nurse, physician or other medical practitioner. Unfortunately, birth injuries still occur, even under the best of conditions.

Some of the most serious birth injuries include:

Cerebral palsy
Erb’s palsy
Child brain damage
Orthopedic injury
Surgical error

Estimates indicate that approximately 3-5 babies in 1,000 sustain some type of injury at birth and many cerebral palsy and Erb’s palsy cases are victims of medical malpractice during labor and delivery. Such tragedies are avoidable. Our Florida birth injury lawyers have successfully represented many victims of birth injury, and will readily bring suit against any doctor, surgeon, other medical professional or medical facility.

The experienced birth injury and cerebral palsy attorneys of Levin Papantonio Thomas Mitchell Rafferty & Proctor, P.A. will use their firm’s resources and reputation to get you justice. We are well-known across the nation for our aggressive work and our impressive results. In just one year, our lawyers gained over $500,000,000 of compensation for our clients.
