Birth Injury Lawyer

Representing the Injured in Kentucky and Tennessee

Does your child suffer from cerebral palsy, Erb’s palsy, or an injury caused by shoulder dystocia?

These serious conditions may have been caused by a medical mistake during pregnancy or childbirth, and often require expensive surgeries and can leave children with permanent disabilities.

If your baby suffered a birth injury, we want to help. Our birth injury attorneys know the stress and heartbreak you are facing. Call us at 1-800-489-6000 or fill out an online consultation form to get the help you need to help secure your family’s future.

Preventable Injuries

Many Kentucky and Tennessee birth injuries can be prevented if necessary precautions are taken. When hospital employees make careless mistakes, it is often the infant who suffers. At Hughes & Coleman, we believe those responsible for causing preventable birth injuries need to be held accountable for their carelessness.

If you believe your baby suffered a birth injury as the result of a medical mistake, let our Kentucky and Tennessee birth injury attorneys help you and your family. Let us fight for the money you need to cover doctor’s bills, medical equipment, and physical therapy for your child.

Cerebral Palsy, Erb’s Palsy, and Shoulder Dystocia

Brachial plexus injuries (such as Erb’s palsy) are conditions that affect a baby’s muscle movement and coordination. Symptoms include:

limp or paralyzed arm
lack of muscle control in the arm, hand, or wrist
lack of feeling or sensation in the arm or hand

It is caused when a baby’s shoulders become stuck during childbirth (known as shoulder dystocia) and the nerves between the baby’s shoulder and spine are damaged.

Cerebral palsy is a permanent brain disorder—another potential birth injury—that may result in limited motor skills, speech difficulties, learning disabilities, or other serious, lifelong problems.
