Birth Injuries

At Patton Law Practice, we have a special passion for helping victims of avoidable birth injuries. Bringing a baby into the world should be one of the happiest moments in a parent's life. All parents dream of delivering a healthy baby without complications and they expect their baby to grow up to be a healthy adult. However, complications during pregnancy or delivery can lead to temporary or permanent injury to the baby. Unfortunately, some of these birth injuries occur because of the negligent act of a medical professional. There are many different possible causes of birth injuries, including:

• Delayed cesarean section
• Failure to notice fetal distress
• Improper use of medical devices - forceps or vacuums
• Improper assessment of baby's health in womb
• Inadequate assessment of the mother's health

As a result of a birth injury, an infant may be afflicted with a serious medical condition such as cerebral palsy, erbs palsy, autism, or epilepsy. In situations where harm to the baby was avoidable, it is important to seek legal advice right away. Birth injury litigation involves a high degree of knowledge and experience, and you need a law firm that provides both. At Patton Law Practice, our Arizona birth injury lawyers have the qualifications necessary to handle complex medical issues involved with birth injuries and we provide outstanding results for our clients. We understand the medical issues, and we make sure our clients are educated on the full extent of a claim for birth injury as well.
