Michigan Birth Injury Lawyer

Detroit Delivery Room Error Attorney

Delivery room errors and birth injuries are among the most tragic types of medical malpractice. In these cases, the negligence of a doctor takes away a newborn's chances of a normal, happy and healthy life. These careless medical professionals put parents in the stressful position of having to overcome countless challenges in raising their child.

If your child has suffered a birth injury due to an act of negligence on the part of a doctor or medical professional, the attorneys of McKeen & Associates are ready to help you get justice.

When you choose our law firm to represent you in your birth injury case, you will have more than 100 years of collective experience on your side. We will put that experience to work to pursue maximum compensation for you and your child.

A birth injury can happen during childbirth. It can also be the result of improper prenatal care or neonatal care errors. Typically, it can be directly linked to a failure to diagnose or properly treat a condition.

For example, during a pregnancy, a doctor should be able to spot genetic issues. A doctor should be able to recognize and treat most infections in the mother that may be passed on to the child during birth. Before or during childbirth, a doctor should be able to spot fetal distress and provide a C-section to prevent damage to the child. After childbirth, a doctor should be able to diagnose and treat jaundice, infections or other conditions.

No matter what the medical error was that caused a birth injury, the first step is to verify that it was the result of malpractice. We have the resources to bring in top experts to help us gather the information we need to build a successful case.
