Postpartum Complications
The minutes and hours after birth are a critical time period. When medical professionals fail to provide adequate care during postpartum recovery, both mother and child can suffer severe and life-threatening injuries.

At the law offices of Jacobs & Jacobs, we provide experienced representation to individuals and families who have suffered due to birth injuries and other forms of medical malpractice. We are committed to helping you receive adequate compensation for the hardships you have suffered.

Postpartum injuries can occur due to errors and omissions by obstetricians, nurses, anesthesiologists and other medical professionals. Examples of postpartum negligence include:

  • Failure to recognize and treat respiratory stress disorder (RSD) in newborns
  • Failure to properly administer anesthesia
  • Failure to recognize and treat postpartum infection
  • Failure to properly treat bowel obstructions after a C-section
  • Failure to recognize and treat excessive bleeding

Our attorneys have the necessary experience to handle complex birth injury lawsuits involving serious injury and wrongful death of the child and mother. We have the investigative tools to uncover negligence in birth injury cases, and to pursue full and fair compensation for our clients.

If you have questions about your birth injury case, please contact us online or by telephone at 866-668-7179. If you cannot come to the office, we will come to your hospital room or home. We want to help you and your family through this.
