The Laws and Facts of Medical Malpractice Cerebral Palsy Cases

If your child has cerebral palsy, then you probably want to know why. What exactly is cerebral palsy, and could my child’s condition have been prevented? Cerebral palsy is a very broad term. It typically involves children who have a congenital brain malformation, which occurs when something goes wrong in the formation of the DNA of the brain. An MRI of the brain can tell medical experts the likely cause. It can be caused by avoidable mistakes, such as low oxygen in the brain during childbirth as a result of bad decisions at the hospital.

We have seen cases where the medical records indicate a healthy baby only an hour before birth, but then unheeded warning signs lead to the birth of a handicapped baby. Many cases of cerebral palsy are not the result of medical negligence, but if you think you have a case and would like more information, then please call Donahoe Kearney at 202-393-3320.

Story Of Success

Thanks, Mr. Nawal, but Keep the Kidney!

I owe the people of Donahoe Kearney a kidney. They’re the best and only law firm you should go to for anything related to workers’ compensation law.

As someone who has never navigated the legal system before, I was initially very nervous and apprehensive about the process. Despite it all, Paul remained incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and patient. I couldn’t have asked for a better paralegal for my case.

They recovered several months of back pay and ensured that the medical treatment for my work injury would be covered. I can’t thank them enough for the peace of mind they’ve provided me, and I wish I could give more than five stars.
