At CP Family Help, we stand with families from the very first moment they suspect something went wrong during labor or delivery. When a birth injury turns into a lifelong condition, it’s not just a medical event it’s a life-changing diagnosis. We’ve built our entire legal practice to support families dealing with conditions like cerebral palsy and HIE caused by preventable birth injuries.
What Happens When a Birth Injury Becomes a Lifelong Condition?
Sometimes, what seems like a routine delivery hides medical errors that lead to permanent complications. Oxygen deprivation, delayed C-sections, misread fetal monitoring these mistakes can cause irreversible damage. When a birth injury turns into a lifelong condition, your child may face years or decades of therapy, support, and specialized care.
Common lifelong conditions caused by birth injuries include:
- Cerebral palsy (CP)
- Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE)
- Epilepsy or seizure disorders
- Developmental and learning delays
- Permanent mobility or cognitive impairment
Our job is to help families understand whether medical negligence caused these outcomes and to fight for the compensation needed to secure their child’s future.
