Birth Defect Lawsuits

Parents want their children perfect but sometimes it's impossible. When that becomes a reality it is vital for parents to seek the help of seasoned birth defect lawyers.

Medical malpractice, dangerous drugs, and environmental exposure can cause serious birth defects and injuries. A New York birth defect law firm can provide answers.

Medical Malpractice

If a physician fails to adhere to the accepted standard of practice in his or her area, it is considered medical malpractice. This could mean failing to perform prenatal screening, prescribing medications that increase the risk of birth defects, or making an error during labor and birth.

Birth defects and birth injuries are often due to genetic and environmental causes, but occasionally they occur due to the negligence or malpractice of a doctor. If a physician fails to detect congenital disabilities in utero, and then fails not to inform parents they may be legally able to file a case for compensation due to a birth defect for all the costs associated with their disabled child.

A successful medical malpractice claim in birth defect cases demands that the physician owed the patient a duty of care, that the physician breached this duty, that the doctor's actions or failure to act caused injuries and damages and that the victim suffered economic and non-economic damages as a result of his or her injuries. These damages could include medical expenses, lost wages and emotional distress.

Some birth injuries and defects are preventable by timely testing and monitoring during pregnancy, so it's important for pregnant women to follow their doctors' recommendations about prenatal visits. If you suspect that the birth defect of your child is due to medical malpractice, contact an experienced medical malpractice lawyer and birth injury lawyer as soon as possible.

Toxic Chemicals

Every year thousands of children are born with some kind of birth defect within the United States. These birth defects can vary in severity and impact way that a child appears and behaves in life. Some are minor while others can lead to serious issues that could be fatal.

The causes of a child's birth defects can stem from genetic defects or a range of chemical and environmental factors. For instance exposure to toxic chemicals can cause serious complications for newborns. Our firm is committed to holding employers accountable for exposing pregnant women and their newborn babies to harmful substances or medications.

It is well-established in scientific research that certain toxins and chemicals can pass through the placenta and harm the unborn baby. These chemicals are teratogenic. The exposure to these teratogenic chemicals can cause birth defects like Cleft lips and palates, spina bifida and muscular dystrophy.

Many mothers are exposed to a wide variety of toxic chemicals while working. These chemicals can be inhaled or inhaled through the skin. These chemicals include industrial solvents like ethylene glycol ethers (EGE) which are used in the fabrication of semiconductors. Parents can also be exposed toxic substances when they consume certain prescription and over-the-counter drugs. Many medications have not been tested properly on pregnant women and may cause birth defects.

Environmental Exposure

While genetic disorders are one of the most frequently cited causes of birth defects, exposure to environmental factors is also a major factor. The presence of various chemical compounds and toxins in the home, at work and in food items can increase the risk of birth defects. Pesticides and fungicides are among the most common. Paints, heavy metals, heavy pigments, and certain chemicals are also included. Exposure to toxic substances is nearly always inevitable. But, when businesses do not take precautions to protect pregnant employees they're negligent and could be held accountable.

Researchers are still unable to identify the exact cause of the specific birth defect. It is possible that a combination between a variety of factors could cause the condition, but the problem is evaluating the effects of these interactions in real time. This is why the National Children's Study, now being conducted in a number of states, is so important. The NCS will enrol 100 women from the representative population and monitor them and their children over the long-term. This study will provide the most complete data to date on how a variety of environmental factors affect fetal and child health.

Many parents who suffer from a birth defect in their child are resentful, believing that they caused it. However, these defects are usually inevitable. Our birth defect lawyers are aware of this and are committed to families seeking justice for children suffering from birth defects.

Product Liability

Many birth defects are caused by a variety of factors, ranging from drugs and alcohol use during pregnancy to genetics. However, many of these causes are preventable. If your child was born with a medical condition that could have been prevented in the first place, you may be able to claim damages through a birth defect lawsuit.

A New York birth defect attorney will be able to help you determine if the condition of your child is caused by an illness, chemical or environmental exposure that qualifies for compensation. Based on the severity of your child's health condition your legal team will also be able to calculate the total cost of medical bills that are admissible for compensation.

Although the vast majority of birth injuries are not the result of medical negligence however, there have been instances where doctors have been negligent prior to or during labor and delivery. A doctor may prescribe a medicine that hurts the baby before it is born, or make a mistake during surgery.

Our birth defect attorneys have successfully defended claims where a mother's health care provider was exposed prescription drugs or toxic chemicals, increasing the likelihood that she could give birth to a child suffering from birth defects. We also have filed birth defect lawsuits against semiconductor and paint factories who expose their workers to dangerous chemicals in the workplace.
