Birth Defects killed 147.1 children out of every 100,000 babies born in Ohio in 2001. In that year in Ohio, infant mortality rate due to birth defects accounted for 19.2% of all infant deaths. While birth defects can occur naturally, they can also be the result of medical malpractice

Birth defects can cause a lifetime of pain and expensive medical bills. The medical malpractice lawyers at Weitz & Luxenberg have over two decades of experience with these cases.

If medical negligence caused your child's birth defects, don't wait until its too late.

1996	1997	1998	1999	2000	2001	% infant deaths: 2001
169.6	158.1	173.5	142.9	158.3	147.1	19.2

Because of the statute of limitations on medical malpractice cases, your case must be filed as soon as possible after the injury occurs.

Litigation may be the only way to receive the damages to which you may be entitled, such as medical and health care bills, lost or diminished wages, and financial compensation to family in the case of death. Your individual state's law may limit your time to bring a legal claim to protect your rights. You need to have your Brith Defects/Injury claim evaluated immediately!
