our firm has a lot of experience
0:06
handling obstetrical malpractice case
0:08
that’s when something goes wrong during
0:10
the course of labor and delivery and
0:12
unfortunately the most vulnerable of our
0:15
clients the victims are The Unborn
0:17
children who are then born with a
0:18
significant medical problem now there
0:20
are lots of problems that can arise and
0:23
lots of injuries that children can
0:25
suffer here are the two most common
0:27
which are very similar but there are
0:28
nuances the first one is a birth injury
0:31
when a child suffers an injury during
0:33
some mishap during a labor and delivery
0:35
fair to properly monitor fair to perform
0:38
an earlier C-section those children can
0:40
be deprived of oxygen and that
0:42
oftentimes results in something called a
0:45
birth injury a little bit different than
0:47
that is what we call Birth trauma when
0:49
we think about trauma that can be
0:51
physical trauma to a child that if the
0:54
child is not delivered appropriately or
0:56
quickly enough the shoulder can be stuck
1:00
there can be a what’s called a subdural
1:01
hematoma or a hemorrhage of the brain
1:04
that’s trauma that’s where something
1:06
mechanically was done that caused
1:08
excessive or inappropriate force and
1:10
that’s what we think about trauma so
1:12
when families come to us with an injured
1:14
child or an injury to the mom during
1:16
labor delivery we urge them especially
1:18
in Florida because the law has got some
1:20
real weird Oddities to it where you’ve
1:22
got to move quickly you’ve got to seek a
1:25
lawyer’s assistance and advice as soon
1:27
as you can so that both the mom and the
1:30
child can receive the Justice they
1:32
deserve
