Birth Injuries

About Birth Injuries

Few moments are more vulnerable than childbirth, and a birth injury can affect a baby, a mother, or both — such as oxygen deprivation or an improperly managed delivery that leads to lasting harm. In California, these claims are time-sensitive, with deadlines that differ from ordinary injuries and special timing rules when a child is involved, so understanding your situation early matters. California also caps certain non-economic damages, and proving what happened usually requires an independent medical review. If you have concerns about care during pregnancy or delivery, you can share a few details and connect with a California attorney.
