Cerebral Palsy Lawyer

Cerebral palsy is a non-progressive neurological physical disability that occurs at birth, or shortly thereafter. It causes complications with a variety of motor functions and can have a profound impact on the functionality of the child. Consequences of the disorder can range from seizures and spasticity to paralysis and mental retardation.

It is not entirely certain what causes cerebral palsy, but the condition has been closely linked with disruptions of oxygen  and nutrition to the brain during and shortly after the birthing process. This may come from choices the doctor makes during deliver itself, or it can be caused by digestive, respiratory or digestive complications that are untreated, particularly in cases of premature birth.

Most people with cerebral palsy require special care throughout their lives, including therapy, modified living spaces, and special supplies. If your child has cerebral palsy, it may have been caused by the doctor. If this can be proven by one of our Dayton cerebral palsy lawyers at our firm, you could be eligible to recover compensation to help you meet your child's very specific needs as her or she grows.
