Medical Malpractice

Medical malpractice occurs when a physician does not adhere to the accepted standards of medical care in their area of expertise. This could mean not performing prenatal tests, prescribing medications that increase the risk of birth defects or committing an error during labor and birth.

Birth defects and birth injuries are often caused by environmental and genetic factors however, they can also be the result of the negligence of a doctor. For instance in the event that a physician fails to detect a congenital disability in utero and fails to notify parents of this disability, the parents can pursue a wrongful birth lawsuit seeking compensation for the lifetime expenses associated with the disabled child.

A successful medical malpractice claim in birth defect cases demands that the physician owed the patient a duty of care, that the physician did not fulfill this duty, that the doctor's actions or inability to act directly caused injuries and damages and that the victim suffered economic and non-economic damages as a result of the injuries. These damages may include costs of medical bills lost wages as well as pain and suffering and emotional distress.

Prenatal visits are essential to ensure that pregnant women are provided with the appropriate testing and monitoring. If you suspect that the birth defect of your child is the result of medical malpractice, speak to an experienced medical malpractice and birth injury lawyer immediately.

Toxic Chemicals

Every year, thousands of children are born with some kind of birth defect in the United States. These birth defects can be of varying severity and affect the way that children behave, appear and functions. Some are minor while others can cause serious problems that may be fatal.

The reasons for a child's birth defects can be attributed to genetic anomalies or a wide range of environmental and chemical factors. For instance exposure to toxic chemicals could cause serious problems for newborns. Our firm is committed to holding employers accountable when they expose pregnant women or their unborn children to harmful chemicals or medications.

In scientific literature, it has been established that certain chemicals and toxins may traverse the placenta and affect an unborn child. These toxins are teratogenic. These teratogenic chemicals may cause birth defects, such as lips, palates, and clefts as well as spina bifida.

While working, mothers are exposed to a range of harmful chemicals. These chemicals can be breathed in, consumed or absorbed through the skin. These chemicals include industrial solvents like ethylene glycol-ethers (EGE), which are used in the manufacture of semiconductors. These contaminants can also be ingested by parents who take certain prescription or over-the-counter medications. Many medications have not been tested properly on pregnant woman and have caused birth defects.

Environmental Exposure

Environmental exposure is an important cause of birth defects. Genetic disorders are a common cause but it's not the only cause. Numerous different chemicals and toxins that are found in the home workplace, food and work environment can increase the risk of having a birth defect. These include pesticides, fungicides and lead, as well as heavy metals, certain paints and various chemical compounds. Exposure to toxic substances is almost always inevitable. If businesses fail to protect their pregnant employees, this is a breach of duty and they could be held accountable.

Researchers are still unable to pinpoint the root of the birth defect. It could be that an interaction between a variety of factors could cause the problem, but the issue is evaluating these interactions in real-time. The National Children's Study is important because it is in progress in a variety of states. The NCS will enrol 100,000 women from representative populations as well as follow them and their children over the long-term. This study will provide the most comprehensive data to date about how a variety of environmental factors impact fetal and child health.

Many parents who are suffering from a birth defect in their child feel guilty for having contributed to the condition, but it's often the case that these types of defects are a given. Our birth defect lawyers know this and are dedicated to helping families seek justice for children suffering from birth defects.

Product Liability

Many birth defects result from a variety of factors that range from drug and alcohol consumption during pregnancy to genetics. Fortunately, many of these causes are preventable. If your child was born with a medical condition that could have been prevented in the first place, you may be able to claim damages in a birth defect lawsuit.

Your legal team will calculate the total cost of medical expenses associated with your child's condition according to the severity.

While the majority of cases are not the result of medical negligence however, there have been instances where doctors have been negligent during or prior to labor and birth. A doctor may prescribe a medicine that hurts the baby before it is born, or make a mistake during surgery.

Our birth defect lawyers have successfully pursued claims in which a mother’s health care provider was exposed to toxic chemicals or prescription drugs, increasing the likelihood that she could give birth to a baby with birth defects. We have also filed birth defect lawsuits against companies who expose workers to dangerous chemicals at work like a paint factory or semiconductor manufacturing companies.
