Birth Injury Lawyer in Vallejo, CA

When a joyful moment turns tragic due to medical negligence during childbirth, families in Vallejo, California need experienced legal support to pursue justice. At Moseley Collins Law, we understand the devastating impact of birth injuries on families and provide dedicated legal representation with over 40 years of experience handling birth injury cases.

A birth injury occurs when harm comes to an infant before, during, or shortly after the delivery process. These traumatic events can result in permanent disabilities and ongoing medical challenges that affect not only the child's development but also create significant emotional and financial strain for the entire family.

Medical negligence during childbirth can result in various serious injuries, including:

• Cerebral Palsy
• Erb's Palsy and Brachial Plexus Injuries
• Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE)
• Shoulder Dystocia
• Spinal Cord Injuries
• Skull Fractures
• Facial Paralysis
• Birth Asphyxia

Vallejo residents have access to several medical facilities where births take place:

• Kaiser Permanente Vallejo Medical Center
• Sutter Solano Medical Center
• NorthBay Medical Center

According to recent studies by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 7 out of every 1,000 births in the United States involve birth injuries. The Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP) reports that many of these injuries are preventable with proper medical care and monitoring.

California law sets specific deadlines for filing birth injury claims. While exceptions exist, it's crucial to consult with a birth injury lawyer as soon as possible to protect your legal rights and ensure compliance with statutory deadlines.

Understanding the legal process helps families prepare for what lies ahead:

1. Initial Consultation: Free evaluation of your case
2. Investigation: Gathering medical records and expert opinions
3. Case Building: Establishing negligence and damages
4. Negotiations: Pursuing fair settlement with insurance companies
5. Litigation: Taking your case to court if necessary
