Shoulder Dystocia

New Jersey Shoulder Dystocia Lawyers ◦ Erbs Palsy

Shoulder dystocia, a common birth injury that occurs when a baby's shoulder becomes trapped in the birth canal, is often preventable. Well-trained obstetricians have the knowledge and skills needed to anticipate, prevent and mitigate the possibility of this type of birth trauma.

Contact us to schedule a consultation if your baby suffered a birth injury with lasting nerve damage in the form of Erbs palsy or brachial plexus palsy. We are birth injury attorneys with extensive knowledge and experience related to birth injury cases involving shoulder dystocia.

Your child may face a lifetime of disability and physical therapy as a result of this preventable obstetric malpractice. In fact, a birth injury lawsuit may be the only way to acquire the resources you need to provide your child with the best possible future despite their disability caused by nerve damage.
