How Can a Boston HIE Attorney Help My Family?

What Are the Signs That an Attorney Should Evaluate Our Case?

If you suspect negligence during delivery contributed to your child’s condition, consulting an attorney is wise. Signs include delayed delivery responses, failure to monitor fetal distress, or improper instrument use. Our attorneys at Crowe & Harris, LLP can review medical records, consult with experts, and determine your case's validity, offering a comprehensive evaluation.

Signs like distress in your newborn post-delivery, such as convulsions, low Apgar scores, or resuscitation needs, could indicate HIE resulting from medical oversight. We specialize in analyzing such cases, conducting detailed reviews of medical interventions, and corroborating findings with consultations to identify any negligence.
