Brain
Damage Injuries
Provided by a Pennsylvania Birth Injury Lawyer
and a Philadelphia Birth Injury Attorney
Philadelphia birth injury lawyers from Messa & Associates
can assist those who sustain head trauma due to the birthing process
and due to negligence of the delivery physicians. Damage to the
brain is the leading cause of death among young and middle aged
people in the United States. One-fourth of all brain damage cases
in the United States include those who sustain permanent disabilities
from the trauma. Those who have brain damage experience:
- Loss of memory
- Inability to see, hear or speak properly
- Inability to move limbs properly
- Anxiety and stress disorders
Philadelphia birth injury lawyers at Messa & Associates
work with children who face brain injuries for their entire lives.
Children unable to get enough oxygen immediately after birth can
end up with such brain damage. Such individuals can experience substantial
financial burdens due to medical and rehabilitation experiences,
loss of living income and the inability to fully work throughout
their lives.
If Your Child has been Injured
The Pennsylvania birth injury lawyer at Messa & Associates
works for families experiencing just about any type of brain injury
caused by a faulty birthing process. The main type of brain damage
is a traumatic brain injury. This occurs when the nerves leading
to your brain tear, causing your brain tissues to bruise and swell.
Other types of brain damage include:
- A concussion, which is caused by a large strike to the head
that leads to a slight or lengthy lack of consciousness, vertigo,
nausea or a lower pulse rate than normal.
- An anoxic brain injury, which is when there is a lack of oxygen
to the brain for a short or extended period from the blood stream
being cut off.
The Messa & Associates Philadelphia birth
injury attorney can work with families experiencing brain damage
to make their lives easier and to hold medical practitioners responsible
for their actions.
