BIRTH INJURIES
Most babies are born without incident and grow up to be healthy children and adults.
Unfortunately, a significant percentage of child births do not go well and those infants
often sustain serious and permanent brain damage and other injuries. While not all birth
injuries are due to medical malpractice, a lawyer that is experienced in handling birth
injury cases knows how to establish a case if medical treatment during the delivery was
inappropriate and the infant was injured due to substandard care.
Mr. Egan is an experienced birth injury attorney. He has successfully prosecuted many
birth injury cases and secured substantial awards for the injured children and their parents
who have been represented by him. Some of these cases have been the subject of news
stories that have been aired and/or published by the media.

When a child has suffered serious injuries at the time of his or her birth, the child’s future
is in jeopardy. The child and his parents need the help of an experienced attorney who
can help them provide financial security for their child’s future. All of the child’s
medical records which set forth the details surrounding the child’s birth and resulting
injuries must be secured and carefully reviewed. Expert obstetricians, and pediatric
neurologists, and neuroradiologists need to analyze the pertinent evidence in order to
assess whether or not the case has merit. This comprehensive and necessary process
frequently consumes several months.
When you retain Mr. Egan to represent you and your family, you can be assured that you
have the most experienced and knowledgeable legal help that you can receive. Mr. Egan
has reviewed many birth injury cases and has advised parents and other victims of
professional negligence on areas ranging from the failure to properly recognize and react
to fetal distress, the failure to perform cesarean sections, injuries due to forceps, anoxia or
asphyxiation, improper assessments of fetal age or gestation, and many other types of
child birth injuries.
