At Gluckstein Lawyers, our team of birth injury lawyers understand the complexities of birth injury cases and are here to support you through every step of the legal process.

If you suspect that your baby has experienced a preventable birth injury, our team is dedicated to helping you determine the facts and seek the justice you deserve. Your legal journey with us begins with a no cost initial consultation, during which we will discuss the obstetrical history and the circumstances surrounding your situation. We meticulously gather and review all relevant medical records, including antenatal, labor and delivery, fetal heart tracings, and newborn records, at no cost to you.

Should concerns arise during this review, we engage highly trained medical experts to assess whether there was a breach of the standard of care and establish causation for the birth injury. With their expert support, we build a robust case to pursue compensation for your child and family, aiming to provide necessary justice and financial support. Our experienced birth trauma lawyers in Toronto, Ottawa, and Niagara, Ontario are well-versed in handling such intricate cases and will tirelessly advocate for your family's rights.

Featured : No
SortDate : Aug 18, 2022, 11:39 AM
For a newborn infection medical malpractice claim to be successful, a personal injury lawyer must establish that standards of care have been breached, that the breach directly caused serious harm to a person, and that another person's negligent action or inaction caused this harm. To establish negligence, we conduct a preliminary investigation into a client's medical files to determine when and how the infection started, how long it took to identify it, and how it was treated once identified. We also consult medical experts who can provide an opinion about whether it is reasonable to think a doctor with a similar level of experience under similar circumstances would have made the same choices based on protocols in place.
