What Do You Need to Prove a Birth Injury Case?

To prove that you have been the victim of a birth injury as the result of medical negligence, your situation must meet the basic criteria for general malpractice: Duty of care – the healthcare provider you are considering suing was responsible for your or your loved one’s care; Violation of standard of care – the healthcare provider did not act as a reasonably prudent health care provider would act under the same or similar circumstances; Injuries –that negligence or error resulted in injury; Damages – the injury itself resulted in harm to the patient.

What Should People Look for in a Little Rock, AR, Birth Injury Attorney?

JJS offers victims of birth injuries over four decades of experience with delivering historic justice for those who have suffered tremendously as a result of medical negligence and error. Being represented by JJS means that those who have been harmed by medical providers will experience the personal attention they need—and deserve.

We work with leading medical experts to investigate victims’ injuries and build strong cases on their behalf.

Evidence of malpractice: When JJS builds a case against healthcare providers, we seek out the evidence that proves the full scope of victims’ injuries and the negligence that caused them. We dig deeply through medical records, lab reports, and other medical evidence to uncover every detail possible in holding the responsible party or parties accountable for their medical negligence.
Amount of damages: Medical malpractice lawyers must deeply understand the clinical and legal scope of victims’ past, current, and future medical care as well as how to argue the impact of this care in court or at the settlement table. In order to build those strong cases, JJS enlists a variety of valuable resources, including a team of medical experts and professional investigators.

A medical malpractice law firm must also have the financial resources to pursue fair compensation for damages in the most severe cases. Inexperienced and underfunded firms often encourage clients to agree to unfair settlements early in the process because they are not equipped to take these cases to trial, if needed.

How Can Janet, Janet & Suggs Help Victims of Birth Injury?

JJS helps victims of birth injuries in Little Rock, AR, by working to recover damages for the harms that have been inflicted upon them, giving them peace of mind and an opportunity to heal.

Medical costs: Victims should not be held financially responsible for medical bills that never would have been incurred had it not been for medical error. The bills that stem from birth injuries are vast and generally lifelong, and they include inpatient treatment, additional or repeated surgeries, emergency room visits, medication, rehabilitative care, and much more.
Lost wage-earning capacity: Those who have been harmed by severe birth injuries will almost certainly never be able to earn an independent living. If victims are able to work, it generally will be in a limited capacity.
Non-economic losses. Birth injury claims also allow injured people to seek damages for their non-economic losses. JJS has the experience to maximize compensation for birth injury victims’ non-economic damages, such as pain and suffering, diminished quality of life, emotional distress, and other impacts allowable under Arkansas medical malpractice laws.
