What Are the Most Common Causes of Birth Injuries?
Some common causes of birth injuries include:
- Failure to diagnose or manage maternal conditions, including gestational diabetes, pre-eclampsia and eclampsia
- Medical negligence during delivery, including misuse of birth tools, improper episiotomies and failure to repair birth injuries
- Oxygen deprivation leading to cerebral palsy and other neurological impairments
- Delayed or incorrect medical intervention, including failure to do a timely C-section or improper fetal monitoring
- Anaesthetic and medication errors
What Are the Potential Consequences of Injuries During Child Birth?
The consequences of gynaecological and pregnancy-related injuries can be dire, resulting in physical and psychological damage. In many cases, these injuries can leave the mother incapacitated and unable to bond with or care for her newborn, which can have long-term emotional effects. These injuries can also break down relationships and affect other family members psychologically. While seeking compensation can’t replace what’s been lost, it can provide significant financial relief so the mother can focus on her recovery and well-being.
How Do I Claim Compensation for Injuries During Child Birth?
Claiming birth injury compensation can be complicated, but Wyatts’ lawyers are here to guide you through every step. Here’s what you need to do:
- Get Legal Advice – Engage a specialist birth trauma lawyer to review your case. Your lawyer will review your medical records and gather evidence.
- Medical Expert Review – The independent medical experts will assess your case, determine if your treatment was negligent and provide a formal report.
- Lodging Your Claim – Your lawyer will file your claim with the insurer of the responsible medical provider. The insurer will review the claim and respond.
- Mediation & Settlement – If the insurer denies your claim, we will proceed to mediation. Most cases are settled at this stage.
- Court Proceedings (If Necessary) – If a settlement isn’t reached, your case may go to court. Your lawyer will advise you on the best way to proceed.
