Birth injuries and birth defects can be caused by medical negligence, drugs that are dangerous, and environmental exposure. A New York birth defect law firm can help you find answers.

Medical Malpractice

When a doctor fails follow the accepted standard of practice in their field, it's considered medical malpractice. This could mean not performing prenatal tests or prescribing medications that increase the risk of birth defects or making a mistake during labor and delivery.

Birth defects and birth injuries are usually the result of environmental and genetic causes, however, they can also be a result of a doctor's negligence. For instance when a doctor is unable to identify a congenital disability in utero and then fails to notify the parents of this disability, the parents can bring a wrongful birth claim seeking compensation for the lifetime expenses incurred by the disabled child.

In order to prevail in a medical negligence case in birth defect cases the plaintiff has to prove that the doctor owed a breach of duty to the patient, that he failed to fulfill this duty, that his actions or lack of action directly resulted in damages and injuries, and that he or she suffered economic and noneconomic damage from the injuries. These damages may include cost of medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.

Prenatal visits are essential to ensure that pregnant women are provided with the appropriate tests and monitoring. If you suspect that medical negligence caused the birth defect of your child seek out a medical malpractice and birth injury lawyer immediately.

Toxic Chemicals

In the United States, thousands of babies are born every year with birth defects. These birth defects can range in severity and affect way a child looks and behaves throughout life. Some are minor, but others can lead to serious problems that may be fatal.

The reasons for a child's birth defects could be due to genetic abnormalities or a range of chemical and environmental factors. For instance exposure to toxic chemicals can cause serious health issues for newborns. Our firm is committed in making employers accountable when they expose pregnant mothers or their unborn babies to harmful drugs or substances.

In the scientific literature, it has been established that certain chemicals and toxins may cross the placenta to affect an unborn baby. These toxins are teratogenic. The exposure to these teratogenic chemicals can cause birth defects such as the cleft palate and lips as well as spina Bifida and muscular dystrophy.

Many mothers are exposed to an array of toxic chemicals while at work. They can be ingested, inhaled or absorbed into the body's skin. These chemicals include industrial solvents like ethylene glycol ethers (EGE) used in the manufacture of semiconductors. Parents may also be exposed to these toxins when they are consuming certain over-the-counter and prescription drugs. This is because a lot of pharmaceuticals are not properly tested on pregnant women and have been demonstrated to cause birth defects.

Environmental Exposure

Environmental exposure is one of the main causes of birth defects. Genetic disorders are a common cause, but it's not the only cause. Numerous different chemicals and toxins that are found in the home as well as in food items can increase the likelihood of having a birth defect. Pesticides and fungicides are among the most frequent. Heavy metals, paints heavy pigments, certain chemicals are also included. Exposure to these toxic substances is often inevitable. However, when employers fail to protect pregnant employees, they're negligent and may be held responsible.

Researchers aren't able to pinpoint exactly what causes a particular birth defect. It is possible that a variety of factors can cause the condition. The problem is to assess the effects of these factors in real-time. This is why the National Children's Study, now being conducted in a number of states, is so important. The NCS will enroll 100,000 women from representative population and follow them over time and their children. This study will provide the most comprehensive data to date on how different environmental factors impact fetal and child health.

Many parents who suffer from a birth defect in their child are resentful and believe that they contributed to it. However, these defects are not always preventable. Our birth defect attorneys understand this and are dedicated in helping families with children with birth defects.

Product Liability

Many birth defects result from a variety of causes ranging from drug and alcohol use during pregnancy to genetics. However, many of these causes can be avoided. If your child was born with a medical issue that could have been avoided, you may be entitled to claim damages through an action for birth defects.

A New York birth defect attorney can help you determine if your child's illness is due to an illness, chemical or environmental exposure that is eligible for compensation. Your legal team will calculate the total cost of medical expenses that are related to your child's illness according to the severity.

While the majority of these cases are not caused due to medical negligence, there have been cases where a doctor has been negligent during or prior to labor and delivery. A doctor could incorrectly prescribe a medication which harms the baby before it's born, or they may make an error during surgery.

Our birth defect lawyers have successfully brought claims against drug manufacturers in cases where a mother's health healthcare provider has been exposed to prescription medicines or toxic chemicals that increase the chances of her having a child born with a birth defect. We also brought birth defect lawsuits against companies that expose workers to dangerous substances while working like a paint factory or semiconductor manufacturing companies.
