A birth injury is any type of harm or injury that a child suffers right before, during, or after they are born — typically during the labor and delivery process.
Birth injuries are often the result of preventable medical errors caused by a health care professional. This is known as medical malpractice.
While some birth injuries may heal completely, others may require your child to receive lifelong medical care and assistance.
“After a difficult delivery, our child was diagnosed with CP. She depends on pureed foods and a feeding tube and faces significant developmental delays. She can't walk, talk, and has frequent seizures. We were overwhelmed until we found Sokolove Law. Their support has been a lifeline for us.” – Parent & Firm Client
If you believe your child’s birth injury was caused by medical malpractice, our Oregon birth injury attorneys may be able to help you hold negligent health care providers accountable for the harm they caused.
Let Sokolove Law Fight for You
Since 1979, Sokolove Law has secured over $1 Billion for families affected by birth injuries.
Birth injuries can often be avoided with proper medical care — but if a medical professional makes a careless mistake during the birthing process, the baby and their family may suffer as a result.
Common medical mistakes that may lead to birth injuries include:
Excessive force during delivery
Failure to properly assess risk factors beforehand
Misdiagnosis or failure to recognize a serious medical condition
Sokolove Law has nurses on staff who can help you understand your child’s injury and whether malpractice or negligence may be to blame.
“We look for red flags, things that might not be what you'd expect as far as the labor or the delivery process. Maybe the labor took a really long time or the pushing stage took longer, or maybe there was both a vacuum and forceps used, which can be concerning.” – Kristin Proctor, Registered Nurse with Sokolove Law

1. Contact Sokolove Law
At Sokolove Law, we provide free case reviews to determine if you may be eligible to file an Oregon birth injury claim.
During this time, we’ll ask you a few questions about your child’s injury, so we can better understand the specifics of your situation.
2. We’ll Gather Evidence of Malpractice
If you have a case, we’ll collect medical records, statements from experts, test results, and anything else needed to show that your child’s birth injury was preventable.
We also have a team of registered nurses on staff who can help make sense of what may have happened to your child.
“Our team talks with families to determine what happened. We work closely with our experts who will form opinions on that and then we present that evidence to whoever the defendants are.” – Ricky LeBlanc, Managing Attorney at Sokolove Law
3. We’ll File Your Oregon Birth Injury Claims
Your Oregon birth injury lawsuit must be filed within the statute of limitations, which is a law that limits how long you have to file a claim. Typically, this is 2 years after your child’s birth or the discovery of their injury.
Once these deadlines pass, you won’t be able to file a claim or pursue compensation for your child’s injury ever again.
Contact Sokolove Law as soon as possible in order to ensure that your claim is filed on time.
4. We’ll Negotiate Birth Injury Settlements on Your Behalf
Our attorneys will negotiate an Oregon birth injury settlement with the defendant(s), which would be the hospital or medical professionals responsible for your child’s birth injury.
The majority of cases end in a settlement, which means you may not have to set foot in court.
If a settlement is unable to be reached, our birth injury lawyers in Oregon are prepared to present your case in a trial and fight for a verdict on your behalf.
