As experienced birth injury and medical malpractice lawyers, Irom Law helps clients obtain compensation for these injuries.

This compensation can provide the resources the child will need to live a comfortable and meaningful life, such as long-term care, physical therapy, and vocational therapy. New York City Cerebral Palsy AttorneyCerebral palsy refers to a group of chronic disorders that affect a person’s motor skills, muscle tone and muscle movement. Damage to the brain during delivery causes poor muscle control. While the injuries causing Cerebral Palsy may occur during childbirth, many doctors do not diagnose Cerebral Palsy until the child is almost two years old. At that time, developmental delays and other impairments become obvious. In addition to impairment of movement and motor skills, additional conditions and complications associated with Cerebral Palsy include epilepsy, attention deficit disorder, and learning disabilities. Your child’s injuries may be a result of medical malpractice that caused injury during labor and delivery. New York has a strict stature of limitations for filing legal actions for compensation for birth injuries. Call Irom Law now for advice as to your prospects for compensation.

This condition is known as Erb's palsy. In these cases, a Caesarian section (C-section) may be the best option for delivery, but many doctors make judgment errors that lead to brachial plexus injuries. Symptoms of Erb’s Palsy include any of the following:
