Medical Malpractice and Cerebral Palsy

While cerebral palsy can be the result of natural causes, the tragic reality is that a majority of cerebral palsy cases could have been prevented had proper care or caution been taken by another party. One of the largest groups of people at fault for causing cerebral palsy is medical practitioners. Unfortunately, all too often a child’s cerebral palsy is the result of a medical professional who failed to give proper care to a mother or child before, during, or after a child’s birth.
