The birth of your child should be a source of happiness. When medical mistakes happen during delivery, your world can change in a single moment. You deserve clear, honest answers about what went wrong and whether proper care could have prevented your child’s injury.
At The Viorst Law Offices, P.C., attorney Anthony J. Viorst offers more than 20 years of experience helping families throughout Colorado. We regularly handle cases across all major regional hospital systems, including UCHealth, HealthONE, CommonSpirit, Banner Health and Children’s Hospital Colorado. Our firm works tirelessly to hold negligent providers accountable and win the support your family deserves.
Was It A Birth Defect Or A Preventable Birth Injury?
Understanding the root cause of an injury helps you take the next right step for your child. Here is how to tell the two apart:
- Birth defects: These conditions develop early in a pregnancy because of genetic or natural factors.
- Birth injuries: These injuries happen during labor or delivery. They often result from delayed C-sections, poor fetal monitoring or improper use of extraction tools.
If your baby was healthy throughout your pregnancy but suffered harm during delivery, a medical error might be to blame.
Severe Conditions We Handle
Our team investigates complex malpractice claims involving delivery errors at hospitals across the state. We bring compassionate, focused guidance to cases involving:
- Cerebral palsy and HIE: Brain damage and movement issues caused by oxygen loss during labor.
- Erb’s palsy and brachial plexus trauma: Nerve damage caused by physical force during a difficult birth. This often leaves an arm weak or unable to move.
- Physical trauma: Head injuries, fractures and severe swelling caused by delivery instruments.
- Maternal complications: High-risk delivery issues like unmanaged preeclampsia or severe labor complications.
No matter which of these injuries your family faces, we are here to help you get answers.
Fighting For Your Child’s Future Care
Raising a child with long-term medical needs requires ongoing therapy, special equipment and continuous care. Because these costs add up quickly, we partner with trusted medical experts to fight for full financial recovery. We also work on a contingency fee basis. This means you do not pay us anything unless we secure money for your family.
Colorado law puts strict time limits on birth injury claims, so taking action early is critical. If your child suffered a preventable birth injury at any Colorado hospital, we are here to support your family.
