McAllen Birth Injury Lawyer

The birth of a child is supposed to be an exciting, joyous event, but not all deliveries go as expected. Sometimes, doctors and nurses have to act quickly to protect a mother and her child. When medical professionals fail to perform their responsibilities in a timely, accurate manner, it can leave innocent babies with devastating disabilities that impact the rest of their lives. When birth injury malpractice affects you and your child, you deserve justice.

While some birth injuries are simply tragic accidents that could not have been prevented, others result from carelessness or negligence by medical caregivers. In these instances, a birth injury lawyer can make a claim for compensation to help you provide your child with the medical care, therapy, and other special treatment required for their birth injuries.

Hiring a Birth Injury Attorney for Facial Paralysis

Facial paralysis is one of the most common birth injuries resulting from negligence. It can be particularly devastating, as it can have long-term, if not permanent, repercussions.

Facial paralysis often happens due to a delivery doctor or nurse’s negligence or recklessness during the birth. It can be caused by many actions, including:

  • Improper use of forceps during delivery
  • Rough treatment of the infant
  • Aggressively moving or treating the mother
  • Shaking a baby during delivery
  • Mismanaging or incorrectly administering medication.

Babies with facial paralysis might struggle to express themselves or develop their speech due to damage to the facial nerves. But paralysis doesn’t just lead to physical limitations — it can also cause significant emotional trauma to the child and their family.

Because of the trauma this can cause, the medical professional responsible should be held liable. Our experienced and empathetic personal injury lawyers in McAllen are dedicated to getting you and your child justice.
