Birth Trauma Lawyers With Experience and Skill | Serving Illinois

There is a long learning curve in medical malpractice cases, and cerebral palsy birth injury cases might be the most complicated of all. It takes a great deal of learning and experience to handle this type of case effectively. There is too much at stake to risk leaving your case in the hands of an attorney who is still learning the ropes in this complicated area of law. What we offer our clients is the security that comes with a broad base of experience of more than 25 years and a successful track record of verdicts and settlements.

Some of the most complicated aspects of cerebral palsy birth injury litigation include:

  • Causation: In most cases, it takes a great deal of experience and understanding to read the testimony, the fetal monitoring strip and other physical evidence to determine accurately whether or not the cerebral palsy came as a result of the doctor's negligence.
  • Damages: It is never easy to determine damages in birth injury cases. With more than 100 combined years of experience in this area among our attorneys, we have the skill to accurately assess the damages in a way that will be viable to the court and the jury, increasing our clients' damage awards.
  • Negotiation: Most cases settle out of court because no one wants to go through a protracted civil trial. However, it takes experience and learned judgment to know whether a defendant's settlement offer is adequate. We never encourage our clients to settle unless we know the offer is good. We are savvy negotiators, and we have the resources to take your case to trial and the appeal process if necessary, to get you the maximum financial award possible.
