Birth Injury Lawyer Sioux Falls, SD

birth injury lawyer Sioux Falls, SD

Parents deserve to revel in their joy after having a baby. But for some, this moment may quickly turn into a nightmare when they realize something is wrong with their newborn. As our Sioux Falls, SD birth injury lawyer has seen before, doctors and medical professionals can make grave mistakes when it comes to a patient’s pregnancy, delivery, and post-birth care. If you suspect that your newborn could have been injured due to poor medical services, then we urge you to contact our team at The Law Offices of Loos, Sabers & Smith LLP for an immediate consultation. Do not contact the doctor or medical facility about your suspicions just yet, as they may destroy crucial evidence before we get a chance to investigate.

Immediate Signs Of Birth Injury

Signs of a birth injury may be obvious after the baby is delivered, or may not be observable until months or years later. As our knowledgeable birth injury attorney explains, early signs of a birth injury can entail bruises or swelling of the face/head/shoulder, a floppy bodily appearance, one arm is limp, seizures that arise within 48 hours, and the baby needing CPR or a breathing tube during delivery, among others. Ultimately, if you notice something is just not quite right with your newborn’s health or appearance, it is worth considering if a doctor may have failed to provide adequate care.

Delayed Birth Injury Symptoms

There are other symptoms of a birth injury that may develop later on. In fact, the severity of the injury may not become clear until a year or more. Examples of delayed birth injury symptoms can include an inability to walk, crawl, or sit up. The child may have stiffness in their muscles or joints or an inability to control their arm or leg movements. A child may have a birth injury if they struggle to perform basic movement, such as grasping or clapping. We encourage parents to see a doctor if they notice anything abnormal with their child, especially if they are missing developmental milestones.

What Does A Sioux Falls Birth Injury Lawyer Do?

Birth injury lawyers help families who suffered injuries during labor, delivery, or both that occurred due to the negligence or oversight of medical personnel. Delivery, especially at the end, can be chaotic and fast-paced, with a lot of moving parts. However, doctors and their delivery teams have a responsibility to perform a standard level of care for mother and child. Failure to do so can be considered a form of negligence, and we’re here to investigate.

Our attorneys gather more information about the events surrounding the injury to the mother, baby, or both, seeking evidence that a medical professional failed to deliver the appropriate level of care and consideration for your safety. Our goal is fair compensation for the medical care you need now and for your future needs.

Securing Fair Compensation In An L&D Malpractice Lawsuit

Some birth injuries have lifelong consequences; babies injured during delivery may suffer forms of palsy, brain damage, or disfigurement. A mother may risk her life, need emergency surgery, or even have her fertility compromised due to negligence. When medical mistakes reach the level of medical malpractice, that’s where we step in.

One vital service that our legal team can provide is medical professionals evaluating and reviewing your experience. We book medical experts to explain to a judge and jury how the doctor or other healthcare provider deviated from a standard level of patient care and how this deviation led to your injuries.

We also look to the future, especially for children who may need lifelong medical care and support. If an otherwise healthy baby now requires intensive medical care or is disabled, then any settlement should cover the projected needs to treat and care for their medical condition. Our firm uses economic experts to help quantify future medical needs so your family is not unduly burdened.

Legal Advice For Birth Injury Claims

Have you or your baby been harmed during labor or delivery? The attorneys at The Law Offices of Loos, Sabers & Smith LLP, are here to support your family in your quest for justice and fair compensation for current and future damages. We take your needs seriously and we’re prepared to file a claim against a doctor, nurse, or even hospital to help you get the money you deserve. Contact us today for a free consultation with a Sioux Falls birth injury lawyer.
