Bringing a child into the world should be a joyful experience—but when medical mistakes happen, the consequences can be heartbreaking and lifelong. If your baby was injured during labor or delivery, you may be entitled to compensation. The birth injury attorneys at Pisanchyn Law Firm are here to help families across Pennsylvania hold negligent medical providers accountable.
What Is a Birth Injury?
A birth injury occurs when a newborn suffers physical trauma or medical harm during pregnancy, labor, delivery, or shortly after birth. These injuries can result from poor medical judgment, improper use of tools, or a failure to act quickly in an emergency.
Common Types of Birth Injuries We Handle:
Brachial plexus injuries (Erb’s palsy)
Brain damage from lack of oxygen (HIE)
Skull fractures or head trauma
Shoulder dystocia
Spinal cord injuries
Delayed C-section injuries
Our team of Pennsylvania birth injury lawyers works with medical experts to uncover the truth and build strong legal cases for families in need.
