Birth Injury Attorney in Indianapolis
If your loved one is a birth injury victim in Indianapolis, they may be owed some form of compensation. However, this compensation isn't usually readily available. The other party won't hand you a blank queue and have you write any amount you feel is fair. That is not how these cases work.
Instead, you'll likely face some stiff resistance from the at-fault party and, even more likely, their insurance provider. That's because the healthcare professional or institution responsible for the birth injury would not want to have their reputation damaged. And if they could choose between compensating your loved one or sweeping the entire case under the carpet, they'd rather opt for the latter.
On the other hand, insurance is business. So, even if your loved one has suffered life-changing injuries, insurance companies will only care about minimizing payouts. That's why they'll try everything possible to blame you for the injuries, even if it means digging into your medical records to find the slightest opportunity to dispute liability.
We haven't even touched on the strict deadlines and complex legal processes plaintiffs must adhere to when pursuing a birth injury claim. Everything can become overwhelming overnight. But you shouldn't have to struggle alone when you can hire an Indianapolis birth injury lawyer from Morgan and Morgan, the nation's largest and most powerful injury firm.

FAQ
Get answers to commonly asked questions about our legal services and learn how we may assist you with your case.
What Damages Can I Claim After a Birth Injury?
After a birth injury, you can typically claim damages such as medical expenses, ongoing treatment costs, pain and suffering, lost earning capacity, and other related expenses. When you contact us for a free case evaluation, a birth injury specialist from our team will review the specifics of your case to determine the damages you may be entitled to.
Who Gets Compensated After a Birth Injury?
Compensation for such cases usually goes to the injured child and their family. This covers their medical and other related expenses, such as child care, resulting from the birth injury.
Who Issues Compensation After a Birth Injury?
Healthcare providers and institutions are required by law to have some form of insurance to protect them against such claims. If you win your case, compensation is often issued by the responsible party's insurance company.
How Long Will It Take to Obtain Compensation?
It depends on the complexity of the case. Some cases, particularly where liability is undisputed, may be resolved relatively quickly, usually out of court. On the other hand, if there are questions regarding liability or the other party simply won't cooperate, your lawyer may decide to pursue a lawsuit, which could take longer.
What Factors Will Influence the Value of My Claim?
Several factors can influence the value of your claim, including but not limited to the severity of the birth injury, long-term care needs, future medical expenses, and the impact on the child's quality of life.
How Soon Should I Seek Legal Counsel After a Birth Injury?
You should seek legal counsel as soon as possible after a birth injury occurs. That helps in preserving evidence, building a strong case, and ensuring you meet any legal deadlines for filing a claim (while also leaving room for a possible lawsuit).
