Cerebral palsy can result from preventable mistakes during pregnancy, labor, or delivery—such as oxygen deprivation, improper use of forceps, or failure to respond to fetal distress. If your child has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy and you suspect medical negligence may be the cause, we can connect you with compassionate, experienced birth injury attorneys. You may be entitled to compensation to help cover lifelong care, therapy, and medical costs.
When I found out my case was going to tried as a FINRA arbitration I was less than excited after learning the typical results of these arbitratoins as it related to my case. Thank God I had Richard - After the panel heard our case from Richard - They made me completely whole. That was not the result I was expecting. All the other attorneys I talked to leading up to the case prepared me for a miserable settlement. I would recommend Richard to anyone that has a securities case.

View More VerdictsCerebral palsy (CP) is a neurological disorder that affects movement, muscle tone, and posture. It’s often caused by brain damage that occurs before, during, or shortly after birth. In some cases, this damage results from medical errors—such as failure to monitor fetal distress, delayed C-section, or improper use of delivery tools. If you suspect your child’s CP was caused by medical negligence, we can connect you with an attorney who specializes in birth injury cases.
If your child experienced complications during labor or delivery—like lack of oxygen, abnormal heart rate, or delayed response to fetal distress—those may be signs that medical negligence contributed to the injury.
