Sometimes, issues arising during pregnancy or after delivery can be dismissed as simply ‘par for the course’. Unfortunately, negligence can and does arise in the medical management of women in pregnancy, during labour and birth, or in those first early months when a baby has arrived. Very often, complications arising before or after birth can be devastating if they are not promptly identified and quickly treated.
Our specialist team has acted for mothers who have suffered long-lasting injuries as a result of errors made during their pregnancy, and/or during labour. These include mismanagement of antenatal care, failure to refer the mother to consultant led pathways, and failure to involve obstetricians in a timely fashion during labour to ensure safe delivery of the baby. Our team continue to deal with a number of claims where newborns have suffered hypoxic brain injuries during delivery, resulting in lifelong health complications and care needs.
We are also acting for those parents who have suffered the devastating effects of stillbirth.
