The day you gave birth to your child should have been the happiest day of your life. But what if you learned that your doctor was negligent and incompetent to such a degree that your child suffered a life-altering injury during the birth process? Your whole family will be affected by a loss like this. You need caring, compassionate legal guidance and that’s exactly what you’ll get when you work with Law Offices of Michael A. Kahn. It’s important to hold medical professionals responsible for the consequences of their actions. You need compensation to provide for your child. We can help.
Turn to us with all types of birth injury cases
The sad truth is that when a doctor or nurse is negligent, or acts with callous indifference, during a birth or during a pregnancy, then serious, life-long injuries can happen. The mother may be injured during labor and delivery. The child may have a birth injury that leads to a lifelong disability. At Law Offices of Michael A. Kahn we have worked on cases covering a huge variety of conditions. Some of them include:
- Brain injuries
- Microcephaly
- Chemical birth defects
- Cerebral palsy
- Shoulder dystocia
- Spinal cord injuries
This is only a partial list. If you or your child were injured during the birthing process or during your pregnancy then you should call Law Offices of Michael A. Kahn at (310) 209-1600 right away.
Medical experts are a must to prove your case
In order to prove that your birth injuries were linked with negligence on your doctor’s part, you’re going to need medical specialists. The reality is that most people don’t know where to start and they can’t always afford the fees these specialists charge. That’s why you need us. We take cases on contingency, which means you don’t pay a cent until you win a settlement.
You can seek damages for a number of issues
There are numerous issues you can seek damage for. When you contact Law Offices of Michael A. Kahn for your free case evaluation, we’ll give you our best advice on what you should seek. Some examples of compensation include:

You don’t deserve to shoulder the burden alone
A disabled child can take a toll on the entire family. The medical costs alone can bankrupt people – and still leave them without the adequate medical care they need. Even for families who don’t need the money, it’s important that those who’ve made mistakes are held accountable for them. You never want another family to go through what you’re going through. By calling our offices, you’ll learn more about your options and how you can move forward. You can’t change the past but you can take steps to make it right.
