Do you have a medical malpractice case? We offer a free consultation so that we can hear your story and offer an honest assessment of what you can expect upfront.

Support And Guidance On Birth Injuries In Illinois
Having a child is one of the most wonderful experiences parents can have. Unfortunately, complications can arise. When a complication causes harm and was preventable, this can compound the emotional brunt of the event.
We help parents with a wide array of birth injuries, including:
- Cerebral palsy (brain damage caused by fetal distress and untreated jaundice)
- Erb’s palsy (nerve damage to the shoulders caused by pulling the infant)
- Brachial palsy, leading to the infant being unable to move their arm
- Facial paralysis
- Spinal cord injuries
- Jaundice
- Anemia
- Vacuum-caused injuries after incorrect use of a vacuum extraction tool
Over the decades, we have helped hundreds of parents recognize what happened and hold negligent parties responsible. While we understand that nothing can undo the trauma and harm, attaining financial compensation can relieve a family of financial burdens.
