Birth Injuries

San Diego Medical Malpractice Lawyer

No words can adequately comfort parents dealing with the effects of a serious birth injury. If you are the parent of a child who was injured during labor or delivery, and the injury occurred as a result of medical negligence, you may be entitled to significant compensation.

The Law Office of Andrew MacLaren Stewart helps families seek justice for otherwise preventable birth injuries sustained during labor or delivery. Contact us at 866.461.0252 or 619.618.2915 to schedule a free initial consultation.

Helping you through a difficult time

Most families coping with the consequences of a serious birth injury don't know where to turn for answers. Hospitals are slow to offer information if negligence by their medical staff may have been the cause of the birth injury.

At The Law Office of Andrew MacLaren Stewart, we offer practical advice and compassionate representation to clients dealing with birth injuries caused by:

  • Inducing labor too soon
  • Delaying a C-section
  • Failure to diagnose preeclampsia
  • Failure to diagnose gestational diabetes
  • Failure to detect abnormalities in ultrasound
  • Oxygen deprivation
  • Forceps injuries
  • Vacuum extraction injuries
  • Gynecological malpractice

Common birth injuries include cerebral palsy, Erb's palsy, shoulder dystocia, brain damage, nerve damage, bone fractures, skull fractures, hypoxia, anoxia and more. These injuries can result in a lifelong disability and permanently affect a child's cognitive skills. Sadly, a child may never be able to reach his or her full potential after suffering a serious birth injury.

It is extremely important that your attorney understands the current and long term effects of your child's birth injury. Attorney Andrew MacLaren Stewart always works with medical experts when preparing and developing birth injury cases. He has obtained many successful verdicts and settlements in medical malpractice cases, and will use his strong courtroom skills to present a compelling case.
