Cerebral Palsy Lawsuit

Cerebral Palsy Lawyers: Medical Malpractice

Cerebral Palsy Lawsuit | Lawsuits, Lawyer, Attorney

The leading law firm of Alonso Krangle LLP is investigating potential lawsuits on behalf of children who suffered cerebral palsy due to medical malpractice or medical negligence. Approximately 8,000 infants born in the U.S. are diagnosed with cerebral palsy each year. Cerebral palsy can be caused by low levels of oxygen suffered by a baby before or during birth. This can be the result of negligent medical care provided to the mother and child during labor and delivery. In such cases, parents may be able to file suit on behalf of their child against the medical practitioners and hospital responsible for their baby’s birth injury.

The cerebral palsy lawyers at Alonso Krangle LLP understand the heavy burden birth injuries place on children and their families. Our firm is committed to ensuring that cerebral palsy victims get the justice they deserve, and offers free legal consultations to any family who would like to discuss filing a medical malpractice lawsuit on behalf of their baby. While legal action can’t change what happened, filing a cerebral palsy lawsuit can ensure that your family has access to the financial resources needed to cover your child’s medical bills, rehabilitation, and other needs. To learn more about obtaining justice for your baby, please contact the cerebral palsy lawyers at Alonso Krangle LLP today.

What is Cerebral Palsy?

Cerebral palsy is a birth injury that affects the brain and nervous system, and may impact a child’s hearing, vision, movement, and ability to learn. Most cases of cerebral palsy 90 percent can be traced to a traumatic event that took place in the womb or during the birthing process. Only approximately 10 percent of all cerebral palsy cases are caused by trauma that occurs following birth.

Most cases of cerebral palsy are diagnosed when a baby is between 3 months and 9 months old. However, mild cases of the condition may not be diagnosed until the child is in preschool.

Symptoms of Cerebral Palsy

The symptoms of cerebral palsy are dependant on the part of the brain that is damaged, and the severity.

During a baby’s first year of life, some signs and symptoms to look out for include:

stiff legs
scissoring legs when picked up
an inability to control/hold the head when picked up
using only one hand to reach for/lift up objects
consistently holding the opposite hand in a fist
using only one side of the body when attempting to crawl
unable to stand without support

Children with cerebral palsy may suffer from any combination of the following problems:

abnormally toned muscles (which can be under- or overly toned)
an inability to perform tasks that require dexterity, such as writing
bowel control problems
drooling
difficulty speaking
difficulty walking
mental retardation
paraplegia or quadriplegia
problems with balance and coordination
seizures
spasticity
tremors, writhing and/or other involuntary movements

Risk Factors and Causes of Cerebral Palsy

Risk factors contributing to cerebral palsy before, during, or after birth include:

Low birth weight
Twins and other multiple births
Maternal infections, such as toxoplasmosis, German measles, cytomegalovirus or herpes before her child is born can result in cerebral palsy
High fever in the mother
Labor and delivery complications, such as the umbilical cord strangling the baby’s neck and restricting the amount of oxygen reaching the newborns brain
Falls or accidents that damage the infants brain
Seizures in the infant
Rh incompatibility
Maternal exposure to toxic substances
Severe, untreated jaundice in the newborn
Infantile seizures
Mistakes made by healthcare providers before, during or after birth

Client Reviews

We were very fortunate to meet David Krangle

My husband and myself had been involved in a multiple vehicle accident 5 years ago. At that time we were given the name of Mr. David Krangle, attorney. It took close to 5 years of very diligent work for Mr Krangle to complete our case to everyone’s satisfaction. During those years of endless hours and hours of work that he put into our case yet whenever we reached out to Dave (as the years allowed us to call him) he was always available to us. His patience did seem endless. His professionalism in researching everything to make our turnout perfect for us was everything we expected and let us rest knowing things are following the right path. I know we were treated with the utmost respect from various insurance companies and other attorney’s because that was something Mr Krangle made sure of. In difficult times it can be intimidating to work with a professional but we were very fortunate to meet David Krangle who had the ability to share warmth and compassion with us during a trying time. Those are traits that we admired in David Krangle and are delighted to have worked with him.

Absolutely Instrumental in Helping Me Expose Medicare Fraud That My Former Employer Was Engaging In

When you have to fight Goliath you better call David. Dave was absolutely instrumental in helping me expose Medicare fraud that my former employer (one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in the world) was engaging in. Dave took the time to listen to my concerns and my evidence. He worked tirelessly to bring the best resources to table so that our case would be investigated thoroughly and prosecuted. In the end, the Goliath was defeated thanks to Dave!

Strongly Recommend Alonso Krangle As a Highly Experienced And Respected Firm

I consulted a close friend and well respected lawyer in the mid-Atlantic region regarding my hip revision surgery due to a medical device recall. Without hesitation, he strongly recommended contacting Alonso Krangle LLP to discuss my case. In his view, Alonso Krangle possessed extensive knowledge and experience in the type of litigation my case required, as well the respect of those throughout the judicial field for their professionalism. Equally as important, their personal focus on each individual’s case gives the client a feeling they are their only concern. My friend’s assessment could not have been more accurate.

Although in New York, Alonso Krangle could not have been more responsive or accommodating if they were located here in Virginia. I cannot recall a single time when my wife or I called their office and did not speak to either Andres Alonso or David Krangle. They were always completely available and ready to answer any and all of our questions. Their advice and recommendations were always honest, sincere, and accurate enabling us to plan accordingly. Legal proceedings can be a long process, but we never felt left out or forgotten thanks to timely updates initiated by Alonso Krangle. In the end, everything turned out as Alonso Krangle estimated from the beginning. I could not have expected better personal attention or concern from a family member handling my case. As with my friend, I too, would not hesitate to strongly recommend Alonso Krangle as a highly experienced and respected firm that will treat you like family.

I was involved in an accident and needed a good Personal Injury Attorney. A friend referred me to David Krangle of Alonso Krangle LLP. After my initial phone conversation with David, I was confident that I found the right Attorney. David was not only extremely thorough, he kept me updated on every stage of my case.

Dave Krangle Worked Restlessly On This Case Until We Won

I consider David Krangle as my attorney for many years now. Going back about 13 years ago my father was involved in a hit and run accident. David had gone the extra mile to win our case….. Mr. David Krangle worked restlessly on this case until we won the case. Since then, if anybody asks for a good attorney I recommend David Krangle with confidence. He has helped a number of my friends and relatives and they all appreciated his professionalism, prompt responses to any inquiry during case development, careful study of all details pertaining to their case. He treats his clients as family. Thank you, Mr. Krangle, wishing you a continued success, good health and prosperity.
