Wrongful Birth

W rongful birth cases are extremely delicate and complicated and only a select few law firms have experience handling such matters. A wrongful birth case is a type of medical malpractice that is essentially the reverse of a wrongful death case, except they always involve a baby. Wrongful birth is a lawsuit carried out by the parents of a child, typically disabled during the mother's pregnancy as a result of negligence on the part of an individual or group of individuals. In basic terms, wrongful birth claims that the parents were not given the correct information about the health of their baby, and therefore they could not make an informed decision about keeping the baby and/or pregnancy.

Examples of Negligence in Wrongful Birth Cases:

• Failing to properly diagnosis or disclose the risks of conceiving or giving birth to a child with serious genetic or congenital abnormalities
• Denying or not properly notifying parents of the availability of genetic or prenatal screening procedures
• Depriving parents the opportunity to fully consider the choice whether or not to conceive or abort their fetus
