Baltimore, MD -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/20/2019 -- Gershon, Willoughby, & Getz, LLC's cerebral palsy malpractice lawyers are now booking Erb's palsy cases for the new year and beyond. Erb's palsy causes paralysis or weakness in a baby's arm. Although there are times Erb's palsy resolves itself over time, in many cases, a child can suffer lifelong struggles. The law firm's attorneys will work diligently to ensure that afflicted families are compensated for the injury the child suffered during birth at the hands of a negligent medical professional.
There are a multitude of factors that place a baby at a higher risk for Erb's palsy, such as a large infant size, high birth weight, or small maternal size. It is the doctor's job to account for these risk factors and recommend a cesarean section as they see fit to avoid complications. During the birthing process, doctor negligence may include failing to act fast enough to prevent complications or using excessive force with medical equipment such as forceps or a vacuum that pulls on the baby's legs or shoulders.
