Medical Malpractice

Medical malpractice occurs when a physician does not adhere to the accepted standards of care in his or her area of expertise. It could be a failure to perform routine prenatal testing, prescribing medication that increases the likelihood of a birth defect or making a mistake during labor and delivery.

Birth birth defects and birth injuries are typically caused by genetic or environmental causes, however sometimes they are the result of an error or negligence of a physician. For example, if a physician fails to recognize a congenital disability in utero and fails to notify parents of this disability, the parents may file a wrongful birth claim seeking compensation for the lifetime costs associated with the disabled child.

A successful medical malpractice claim in birth defect cases must prove that the physician was obligated to the patient to perform a duty of care, that the doctor violated this duty, the doctor's actions, or failure to act directly caused injuries and damages and that the victim suffered economic and non-economic losses due to his or her injuries. These damages could include medical bills as well as lost wages and emotional stress.

Prenatal visits are crucial to ensure that pregnant women receive the required tests and monitoring. If you suspect that medical negligence caused the birth defect of your child, contact a medical malpractice and birth injury lawyer as soon as you can.

Toxic Chemicals

In the United States, thousands of babies are born every year with birth defects. These defects can be of varying severity and affect the way that children behave, look and performs. Some are minor, but others can lead to serious problems that may be fatal.

Birth defects can result from genetic abnormalities or a variety of chemcial and environmental causes. For instance, exposure to toxic chemicals can cause serious complications for newborns. Our firm is determined to hold employers accountable for the exposure of pregnant women and unborn babies to harmful chemicals or medications.

In scientific literature, it is well-established that certain chemicals and toxins may traverse the placenta to affect an unborn child. These toxins are teratogenic. Exposure to these teratogenic chemicals can cause birth defects such as cleft lips and palates as well as spina bifida, and muscular dystrophy.

Many mothers are exposed an array of toxic chemicals while working. These chemicals can be breathed in or ingested, or simply absorbed through the skin. These chemicals comprise industrial solvents such as the ethylene glycol-ethers (EGE) used in the manufacture of semiconductors. These toxins can also be ingested by parents who take certain prescription and over-the-counter drugs. Many pharmaceuticals have not been adequately tested on pregnant women and have resulted in birth defects.

Environmental Exposure

While genetic disorders are among the most common causes of birth defects, exposure to environmental factors is also a major cause. Many different chemicals and toxins that are found in the home workplace, food and work environment can increase the chance of a birth defect. This includes fungicides, pesticides and lead, as well as heavy metals, certain paints and other chemical substances. Exposure to toxic substances is nearly always inevitable. When companies fail to protect their pregnant employees, this is negligence and they can be held accountable.

Researchers have yet to pinpoint the specific cause of a birth defect. It could be that an interaction with multiple factors could trigger the condition, but the challenge is assessing these interactions in real-time. This is why the National Children's Study, now beginning to be conducted in various states, is so crucial. The NCS will enroll 100,000 women from representative populations and monitor them and their children for the long run. This study will provide the most comprehensive data to date about how many environmental factors impact fetal as well as child health.

Many parents who have a birth defect in their child feel guilt and believe that they caused it. But, these problems are often unavoidable. Our birth defect lawyers understand this and are dedicated to helping families seek justice for children who suffer from birth defects.

Although the vast majority are not due to medical negligence, there have been cases where a doctor has been negligent prior to or during labor and birth. A doctor could incorrectly prescribe a medication that harms a baby before it is born, or they may make a mistake during surgery.

Our birth defect lawyers have successfully litigated cases where a mother's health healthcare provider was exposed prescription drugs or toxic chemicals which increased the chance that she could give birth to a baby with birth defects. We also have filed birth defect lawsuits against paint factories and semiconductor manufacturers that expose their workers to toxic chemicals while when they work.
