When you hire a West Virginia cerebral palsy lawyer, they are going to do everything in their power to fight your case. Our professionals are here for you, but sometimes the best thing we can offer when first starting a case is education. Understanding why this happened and what risk factors make it more likely to occur helps parents and lawyers to determine whether the situation could have been prevented. Common risk factors for cerebral palsy in infants include:
- Low birth weight
- Multiples (twins, triplets, etc.)
- Infections in the mother
- Complications during labor and delivery
- Accidents or falls
- Seizures in the baby
- Jaundice that is severe and untreated
- Healthcare provider mistakes, including failure to detect issues or properly perform medical procedures
These risk factors can all affect your West Virginia cerebral palsy case. If you think that your child has a problem, and they have experienced drooling, bowel control problems, difficulty walking or speaking, coordination and balance problems, tremors, seizures, or spasticity, you need to get them to a medical provider right away. By determining the cause of their cerebral palsy, you might realize that you need a West Virginia cerebral palsy lawyer for a medical malpractice claim.
