Investigating Oxygen Deprivation During Delivery and Developmental Delays
Oxygen deprivation — whether partial (hypoxia) or total (anoxia) — is one of the most serious medical emergencies that can occur during the labor and delivery process, often resulting in serious and irreparable brain damage with lifetime consequences for the affected child and his or her family.

Getting Answers for the Parents of Children With Brain Injuries
The symptoms of an infant brain injury may not start appearing until months or years after a child is born. The child may initially be diagnosed with cerebral palsy or another disorder, and the parents may have trouble getting straight answers about the causes of his or her condition.
A legal claim may help you get answers. It may also help you get the financial compensation you need to ensure your child's access to appropriate care and support.
In New York, medical malpractice claims for birth injuries must generally be brought within 10 years of the date of delivery. Our attorneys are experienced at carefully investigating our clients' cases with the help of qualified medical experts so we can get their claims filed promptly.
While not every developmental delay or disability is the result of brain damage during delivery, you deserve an opportunity to find out exactly what happened and to pursue the compensation your child deserves. Let us put our experience and passion to work for you.
