Injuries from Premature Births

Consult with one of our New York birth injury lawyers.

If you believe that your baby’s birth injury was a result of premature birth, a skilled New York birth injury attorney from our firm will review your case. It may be possible that the doctor did not use the appropriate standard of care when deciding to deliver your baby prematurely, therefore placing your child in danger of a birth injury. With more than 40 years in practice, we have helped many clients and their families obtain financial settlements to help with the complications of premature birth injuries. At Pegalis Law Group, we also are dedicated to holding the negligent physician responsible for his or her actions.

The results of a premature delivery may include the following:

• Pneumonia

• Loss of vision
• Cardiac issues

The adverse repercussions that come with these results can overwhelm you with medical bills and change your child’s life forever.
