Birth Injury accidents are commonly dealt with by filing a personal injury lawsuit. For example, if your child suffered any kind of injury during its birth, you could have a birth injury law suit. If a lawsuit is sought, the wrongdoer would be considered the ¨defendant¨, and the person bringing the lawsuit would be referred to as the ¨plaintiff.¨ The plaintiff must prove an injury exists in order to seek damages.
Our team of Indianapolis birth injury lawyers offers many years of medical malpractice experience, helping families in and around the Indianapolis area recover full and just compensation for the injuries they suffered because of obstetric malpractice. If you, or your baby, have suffered a birth trauma injury because of medical malpractice, contact our birth injury lawyers to schedule a free consultation.
Grounds for a birth injury lawsuit are established when a doctor fails to adequately assess or respond to conditions and complications during a woman's pregnancy or delivery. A birth injury lawsuit can also be sought when a woman takes prescription drugs during pregnancy and there is injury to the child.

Punitive Damages in Personal Injury Lawsuits
Punitive damages are awarded over and above compensatory damages and are designed to punish the wrongdoer and to deter similar conduct on the part of others.
