Frequently Asked Questions about Birth Injuries

I think my child may have suffered a birth injury. What should I do?

Birth injuries sometimes go undiagnosed until a long while later. This is because the symptoms of some injuries may not be noticed until much later in the child’s development. If you suspect that your child’s symptoms are a result of an injury they may have suffered during birth, you should seek medical attention immediately for your child. This will ensure that your child gets the treatment they need. Timely treatment can help to prevent the damage from worsening. It may even help to reverse the damage.

You should also consult with an experienced New Jersey birth injury lawyer as soon as possible after discovering that your child has been the victim of a birth injury. Birth injury claims are often quite complicated. They require insight from medical experts. Garber Law, P.C. has access to an extensive network of medical experts.

Can I sue for a birth defect?

It depends. Birth injuries and birth defects are different. While birth injuries are the result of medical negligence during the pregnancy or at childbirth, birth defects are often the result of environmental factors or genetics. In many cases, doctors are able to detect birth defects early in the pregnancy. You can file a medical malpractice claim for birth injuries but not for birth defects.

There are instances when you can sue for a birth defect. For example, if the defect was a result of the use of a defective drug. You can pursue the pharmaceutical family that developed and manufactured the drugs. However, this does not fall under birth injuries or medical malpractice claims.
