Birth Defects: Did Your Midwife's Negligence Lead to One

A Weitz & Luxenberg attorney can help you and your family receive compensation if your child is suffering from any birth defects due to midwife negligence or other forms of negligence. Filling out this simple form can get you a free case review today.

Negligence by a midwife, doctor or nurse can lead to irreversible birth defects. While we cannot reverse the damage, we can help you pursue a case for your child.

A lawsuit grounded in a claim of negligence might be brought, for example, by someone injured in an auto accident against another driver who felt the other driver caused the accident by being reckless or irresponsible. The field of negligence is very broad, and encompasses such practice areas as slip and fall, wrongful death, premises liability, medical malpractice, motor vehicle accidents, lead paint, elevator accidents, and construction accidents.

Your legal claim is too important to take chances with the wrong negligence lawyer. Weitz & Luxenberg has been setting the standard in personal injury law for nearly twenty years. For your negligence claim, choose Weitz & Luxenberg, because experience counts.
