Chicago Cerebral Palsy Attorney
The birth of a child should be among the most joyous moments of your life. But if your child is born with Cerebral Palsy or other birth defects, it might be the result of mistakes made by your doctor or hospital.
Cerebral Palsy is a term used to describe a group of disorders affecting body movements and muscle coordination. Variations include Brachial Plexus Palsy, Klumpke’s Palsy and Erb’s Palsy. All are caused by damage to different areas of the brain before, during or shortly following birth. The effects, depending on which areas of the brain have been damaged, include:
- Mental Retardation
- Seizures
- Impairment of Speech, Hearing or Sight
- Abnormal Perception and Sensation
- Problems in Gait and Mobility
- Involuntary Movement
- Muscle Spasm or Tightness
