Skilled Syracuse Birth Injury Lawyers For Cerebral Palsy And Erb’s Palsy

When a delivery goes wrong, you deserve clear answers. In New York, you have the right to hold the medical team accountable and seek compensation after a birth injury.

DeMore Law Firm, PLLC, is a boutique firm serving families in Syracuse and across New York. Our attorneys, Timothy J. DeMore and Phillip Dysert, work together on every case to provide the aggressive and committed representation you need.

Cerebral Palsy Versus Erb’s Palsy

Cerebral Palsy and Erb’s Palsy are not the same thing. One affects the brain while the other affects the nerves in the arm.

Legal facts about these conditions include the following:

• Cerebral Palsy comes from brain damage during birth, which often means a doctor missed signs of fetal distress or delayed a C-section too long.
• Erb’s Palsy happens when a baby’s neck is stretched too hard during delivery, which usually means the doctor used too much force or mishandled a shoulder dystocia.

Both are often preventable and can serve as proof that a medical team failed to do its job. Knowing the medical facts is only half the fight. The other half is proving the mistake in a New York courtroom. That takes a birth injury attorney like ours who has done it before.

How Our Two Attorneys Handle Cerebral Palsy And Erb’s Palsy Cases

Attorney Tim and Phil work together on every birth injury file. That means two sets of eyes on every medical record and two voices pushing back against the hospital’s lawyers.

Our approach includes:

• Dual-attorney attention on every file to develop a plan for the best possible results.
• Thorough preparation for every case as if it were going to a jury verdict.
• Selective case acceptance so we can dedicate the time and resources your family deserves.

Our birth injury attorneys treat you with dignity and stay by your side through every challenge of your legal journey.
