Birth Injury Lawyer in Danville, CA

When the joy of welcoming a new child is overshadowed by a preventable birth injury, families need experienced legal support to secure their child's future. At Moseley Collins Law, we understand the emotional and financial challenges that birth injuries bring to Danville families. With over 40 years of experience representing birth injury cases, our dedicated legal team helps families pursue justice and obtain the compensation needed for long-term medical care.

Birth injuries represent a serious medical concern that can occur when healthcare providers deviate from established standards of patient care during pregnancy, labor, or delivery. Recent data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicates a significant prevalence of these injuries, affecting approximately 7 in every 1,000 births across the United States.

The severity and impact of birth injuries vary considerably - while some conditions may resolve independently over time, others can result in permanent disabilities that necessitate comprehensive, long-term medical intervention and ongoing specialized care throughout the affected individual's life.

Medical negligence during childbirth can result in various injuries that impact a child's development and quality of life:

A group of disorders affecting movement and muscle tone, often caused by oxygen deprivation during birth. The CDC reports that cerebral palsy affects approximately 1 in 345 children in the United States.

A form of brachial plexus injury affecting nerve function in the shoulder and arm, typically caused by excessive force during delivery.

Brain damage resulting from insufficient oxygen supply during birth, which can lead to developmental delays and cognitive impairments.

Broken bones, particularly the collarbone, can occur during difficult deliveries.
