Charleston Birth Injuries Lawyers

Childbirth is a stressful and difficult experience for mothers, and to some extent for the fathers as well, even when everything goes smoothly. When things go wrong, however, the consequences can be severe. According to statistics, every year 28,000 infants are injured during birth in the United States alone.

The Charleston birth injury lawyers at the Steinberg Law Firm believe it is important to send a message to OBGYN staff: negligence is unacceptable. If one of our clients suffers from a medical error during childbirth, we will work tirelessly to protect her family's legal rights. We are prepared to represent victims of a wide variety of birth injuries.

Types of Birth Injuries

The Steinberg Law Firm’s Charleston medical malpractice attorneys can help if your child is suffering or has suffered from:

• Cephalohematoma
• Facial Paralysis
• Brachial/Erb's Palsy
• External Injuries

How We Can Help

A Charleston medical malpractice lawsuit cannot undo the emotional turmoil of birth injuries. It can, however, help clients win compensation for their medical expenses, lost wages due to missed work, and pain and suffering. A child who is injured at birth may require extensive medical care for the rest of his or her life. Because of this, the financial costs of treating a birth injury can be very high, and it is simply not fair for parents to face these expenses because of someone else's mistake.

Our Charleston birth injury lawyers will help you understand your legal rights and responsibilities, gather the evidence needed to support your case, and argue persuasively in court. If you have any questions about your legal case, we can help you decide whether you have sufficient cause to file a suit.
