Cerebral Palsy Compensation Claims

Back to Other Compensation Claims

Cerebral Palsy (CP) can result from problems during birth and it is thought that complications during birth and labour account for one in ten cases.

Cerebral Palsy can also result from an event before the baby is born. For example problems in pregnancy or genetic factors may predispose a child to CP. Infection can also lead to this condition, even after birth. Our panel solicitors have successfully investigated cerebral palsy claims arising out of the failure to detect ante natal problems, birth asphyxia, inadequate resuscitation and care in the neonatal period and failures to diagnose and treat serious conditions including bronchiolitis, encephalitis, meningitis and jaundice.

Our panel includes cerebal palsy specialists and solicitors with qualifications in medicine, intensive care nursing and midwifery.

The cerebral palsy team lecture widely on the subject of healthcare risk management so that healthcare workers can learn from our claims experience and improve patient care.

In order to pursue a compensation claim for cerebral palsy, a panel solicitor will review the medical records in order identify the complications which arose during birth and assess whether there was correct management and intervention by the clinicians. They will help and support a family through investigating a potential compensation claim.
