Birth Injury Claims

When accidents occur during pregnancy or birth, the results are often traumatic and long-term. JMW Solicitors’ team of legal experts help families affected by medical professionals whose negligence has caused a birth injury to a baby or mother. If you need help making a birth injury compensation claim, take advantage of a free initial  assessment of your case by calling 0800 054 6512 or completing our online enquiry form.

Our birth injury compensation claim specialists cover a wide range of injuries to both the mother and baby, including:

• Vaginal tears
• Episiotomy
• Caesarean section
• Problems with anaesthetics
• Cerebral palsy
• Complications with the umbilical cord
• Brain damage

If a birth injury occurs, those supervising the birth could be held accountable, particularly if complications were missed by those present or they failed to carry out procedures in line with their duty of care to patients. The person responsible might be the midwife, obstetrician, or attending doctor.

What’s more, you might be able to make a compensation claim if your midwife or doctor failed to treat you correctly or didn’t spot symptoms of a condition which developed during your pregnancy.

We have won many multi-million pound settlements for our clients. Start your claim today by phoning us on 0800 054 6512 or fill in our online enquiry form.
