North Carolina Cerebral Palsy Attorney Helping You With Your Claim

Birth-related injuries and issues can arise for various reasons. When your child’s medical condition is the result of negligence, it is important that you know your rights and options under the law. Among the numerous medical problems that can develop is cerebral palsy, a developmental disorder that typically stems from oxygen deprivation during either the development of the fetus or the birth. If you believe your child’s cerebral palsy was caused by negligence during your labor or the baby’s delivery, reach out to a North Carolina cerebral palsy attorney at Martin & Jones right away to discuss your claim.

How Will I Know if My Child Has Cerebral Palsy?

It can be a challenge to determine whether your child has cerebral palsy, primarily because its signs don’t usually appear until the child starts to miss typical developmental milestones as they get older. Still, some of the more common symptoms of the disorder include a lack of reflexes (or abnormal reflexes), uncontrollable movements, unusual posture, poor balance and coordination, and delayed speech, among others. If your child is showing any of these signs, you should take him or her to a qualified physician immediately to obtain a proper diagnosis.

How Can I Determine if My Child’s Cerebral Palsy Occurred During Birth?

Our North Carolina cerebral palsy lawyer understands the range of emotions a parent can experience after learning that their child has cerebral palsy or any other kind of health-related issue. We know it can be overwhelming to deal with, which is why we are here to help as much as possible.

Many instances of cerebral palsy are the result of birth injuries and issues. Some of the following problems may have been the cause, among others:

• Your child was born early
• You had a hard labor or difficult delivery
• Your doctor delayed ordering an emergency Cesarean delivery (C-section)
• There were birth complications (i.e., umbilical cord wrapped around the neck)

There are numerous other issues that may have occurred during your child’s birth unbeknownst to you. That is why it is important to speak to a knowledgeable North Carolina cerebral palsy attorney who is prepared to ask the tough questions to those medical professionals who interacted with and cared for you throughout the pregnancy. Our team will receive the compensation needed to care for your child.
