During pregnancy, certain maternal, fetal, or neo-natal conditions can interfere with normal blood flow or reduce the oxygen content to the fetal brain. These conditions can happen before the onset of labour, during labour and delivery or after the baby's birth. Unfortunately, these conditions can result in complications that can lead to permanent neurological injury or other physical handicaps such as cerebral palsy.

When parents find out that their child has suffered a birth injury, they are routinely told by their physicians that the outcome was unavoidable. Sometimes parents suspect that all of the facts that lead to the child's injury are not being fully disclosed. Lawyers experienced in evaluating birth injury cases can help the parents evaluate the clinical records to determine whether the physicians failed to respond in a timely manner to signs of fetal distress and whether the brain injury could have been prevented.
