It is characterized by either weakness or stiffness of the arms and legs and can be associated with seizures and/or some degree of mental retardation.

WHY SHOULD I HIRE A BIRTH INJURY ATTORNEY?

Because cerebral palsy will result in life-long consequences to both the baby and the family, a cerebral palsy diagnosis requires a careful investigation of the facts and circumstances surrounding the labor and delivery to determine if hypoxia or asphyxia could have been prevented. In many cases, evidence in the medical records, including the fetal monitoring strips, will show significant problems during labor that should have led to an earlier delivery, which would have prevented cerebral palsy.

An experienced Iowa medical malpractice attorney can review your case, investigate the steps that were taken during the delivery process, and collect the evidence needed to file a birth injury claim against the doctor or hospital. With the help of a skilled attorney, your chances of recovering maximum compensation increase greatly.
