Oklahoma Birth Injury Lawyers

Birth injuries are any type of harm to a baby that occurs during or near the time of birth. These injuries can turn what should be a happy moment for your family into a complicated and uncertain future for your child. If you suspect your child has experienced a birth injury in Oklahoma, you may be entitled to compensation for future medical expenses and other care your child may need.

Birth injuries can come with a variety of diagnoses, and can result in disability. Some delays in a child’s development may not appear until they start missing developmental milestones.

Often, the cause of a birth injury can be traced back to specific events during pregnancy or labor and delivery. The risk for birth injury can greatly increase if hospital staff takes the wrong actions or fails to act in time. Experienced birth injury attorneys are well-versed in interpreting medical records and can help decipher the events at birth to determine whether the injury was due to medical malpractice.

Statute of Limitations

Unfortunately, there is a time limit for filing a lawsuit, called a statute of limitations. If you suspect malpractice occurred during birth, it’s important to contact an attorney as soon as possible. The statute may differ depending on what kind of facility the negligence or malpractice occurred in. In Oklahoma, you currently have 18 years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit.
