CEREBRAL PALSY

Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a condition that is caused by brain damage at some point in the birthing process, whether it is just before, during, or just after birth. Many factors may contribute to a child developing this condition. However, medical negligence is often to blame in these matters. At the Bartlett Law Offices, P.C., our legal team is committed to helping you uncover the events that lead to your child's cerebral palsy. Our lawyers have over 25 years of experience, and this aids us greatly in the search for the truth.

It is unacceptable for cerebral palsy, or a birth injury of any type, to be caused by a doctor error or mistake. Our firm strives to hold the medical professionals responsible for the negligent actions that caused the palsy. Some of cases we have seen resulted from the physician's failure to:

• Test for factors that may complicate the birth
• Treat issues that may prevent the normal growth and development in the infant
• Effectively monitor the infant's health and vital signs throughout pregnancy and delivery
• Take the necessary steps and precautions to ensure a safe delivery
• Maintain proper follow up care for the infant after birth

Though cerebral palsy is not 100% preventable, the chances that your child will sustain an injury that leads to this condition are greatly reduced by a doctor effectively monitoring mother and child throughout the pregnancy and delivery.
