Birth Defect Lawsuits

Parents would like their children to be perfect, but in some cases that's not feasible. When that becomes a reality it is imperative that parents in shock seek the assistance of experienced birth defect lawyers.

Birth problems and injuries can result from medical malpractice and drugs that are harmful as well as exposure to environmental hazards. A New York birth defect law firm can provide answers.

Medical Malpractice

When a doctor fails to follow the accepted standard of practice in their field, it's considered medical malpractice. This could mean failing to conduct prenatal testing, prescribing medications that increase the risk of birth defects or committing an error during labor and birth.

Birth defects and birth injuries are usually the result of environmental and genetic factors but they can also be a result of an error by a doctor. For instance in the event that a physician fails to detect a congenital disorder in the uterus and then fails to notify the parents of this disability, the parents may file a wrongful birth claim seeking compensation for the lifelong expenses incurred by the disabled child.

A successful medical malpractice claim in birth defect cases must prove that the doctor has a responsibility to the patient of care, that the doctor violated that duty, the doctor's negligence or failure to act directly led to injuries and damages, and that the victim suffered economic and non-economic damage as a result of the injuries. These damages could include medical bills, lost wages and emotional stress.

Prenatal visits are essential to ensure that pregnant women are provided with the appropriate tests and monitoring. If you believe that the birth defect of your child is due to medical malpractice, you should contact an experienced medical malpractice lawyer and birth injury lawyer right away.

Toxic Chemicals

Every year, thousands of children are born with a kind of birth defect in the United States. These defects may be of different severity and impact the way a child acts, looks and functions. Some are minor, but others can cause serious issues that could be fatal.

Birth defects can result from genetic anomalies or a range of environmental and chemcial factors. Exposure to toxic chemicals, for example could cause serious problems in babies. Our firm is committed in holding employers accountable when they expose pregnant women or their unborn children to harmful medications or substances.

In scientific research, it is known that certain chemicals and toxins can be transmitted through the placenta, affecting an unborn baby. These chemicals are teratogenic. Exposure to these teratogenic chemicals may cause birth defects such as cleft lips and palates as well as spina bifida, and muscular dystrophy.

Many mothers are exposed to a wide variety of toxic chemicals while working. These chemicals can be consumed or inhaled, or absorbed by the body's skin. These chemicals comprise industrial solvents such as the ethylene glycol-ethers (EGE) employed in the production of semiconductors. These contaminants can also be ingested by parents who take certain over-the counter and prescription drugs. This is due to the fact that many drugs aren't adequately tested on pregnant women and have been proven to cause birth defects.

Environmental Exposure

Environmental exposure is one of the main causes of birth defects. Genetic disorders are a common cause but it's not the only reason. The presence of many different chemicals and toxins in the home, at work and in food items can increase the risk of developing birth defects. Pesticides and fungicides are among the most common. Paints, heavy metals, heavy pigments, and certain chemicals are also included. Exposure to these toxic substances is generally inevitable. However, if companies fail to safeguard pregnant employees, they are negligent and can be held accountable.

Researchers are still unable to pinpoint the exact cause of a birth defect. It is possible that a combination with multiple factors could trigger the condition, but the difficulty is evaluating these interactions in real time. This is why the National Children's Study, now getting under way in several states, is so important. The NCS will enroll 100,000 women from representative populations and follow them and their children over the course of time. This study will provide the most complete information on how environmental factors affect fetal and childhood health.

Many parents who are suffering from a child's birth defect feel guilty for having contributed to the problem, but it is the norm that these kinds of defects are inevitable. Our birth defect attorneys understand this and are committed to helping families who have children with birth defects.

Product Liability

Birth problems can be caused by a variety of causes, ranging from drugs or alcohol consumption during pregnancy to genetic. Fortunately, the majority of these causes are preventable. If your child was born with a medical condition that could have been prevented and you are entitled to claim damages through an action for birth defects.

A New York birth defect lawyer will be able to help you determine whether your child's condition was caused by a medication, chemical exposure or other environmental factor that could be eligible for compensation. The legal team of your lawyer can estimate the total cost of medical bills that are related to your child's illness depending on the severity.

While the vast majority of birth defects aren't caused due to medical negligence, there are some instances where a doctor or healthcare professional has been negligent prior to or during labor and birth. A doctor may prescribe a medication incorrectly that could harm a baby, even before birth, or may make an error during surgery.

Our birth defect lawyers have successfully prosecuted claims against drug manufacturers where a mother's health care provider has been exposed to prescription medications or toxic chemicals that increase the chance of her child developing a birth defect. We also have filed birth defect lawsuits against semiconductor manufacturers and paint factories that expose their workers toxic chemicals while in the workplace.
