Birth Injuries

North Carolina Birth Injury Attorney

Every expectant parent dreams of a healthy baby born with unlimited possibilities for the future. When a child suffers a birth injury, however, he or she is robbed of many possibilities and may be forced to live with physical or mental limitations for a lifetime.

Birth injuries can occur when doctors, nurses, or hospital staff members make mistakes before, during, or after a birth. Mothers as well as babies can be the victims. Birth injuries can be mild, severe, or fatal for both mother and child. If you or your child suffered a birth injury due to medical malpractice, please contact a birth injury lawyer at the Law Offices of Paul M. Goodson

Our birth injury attorneys represent clients throughout North Carolina and South Carolina who have suffered all types of birth injuries, including:

• Brachial Plexus injuries
  • Shoulder Dystocia
  • Erb's Palsy
  • Klumpke's Palsy
• Cerebral Palsy
• Complications from delayed birth
• Brain damage (anoxic or hypoxic brain injury)
• Improper use of forceps
• Failure to monitor
• Medication errors
