Birth Injury
Defending Your Newest Family Member
Welcoming a new infant to the family is supposed to be a joyous event. However, when a child is born with a birth injury due to a doctor's negligence, it can alter a family's financial priorities. Instead of starting to save for your child's college education, you may be faced with many challenges trying to pay for lifelong medical care.
If this situation applies to you or a loved one, please do not hesitate to reach out to our experienced birth injury attorneys at Beurkens Law. We work hard to make sure that medical professionals are held accountable for negligence leading to a birth injury.
Birth injuries may include the following:

When you work with one of our birth injury attorneys in Grand Rapids, you don't have to pay until you receive compensation for your child's birth injury. This birth injury compensation can help pay off your current medical bills, as well as finance lifelong medical treatment and rehabilitation. Depending on the severity of the birth injury, you may also receive compensation for your child's loss of a normal life and any earnings they might have made.
