Medical Malpractice and Birth Injuries: Establishing Your Case

In order to bring a birth injury case to trial, a preliminary finding of negligence must first be provided. This requires that a medical expert report be filed within 120 days of the injury itself. The report will include an informed, medical evaluation of decisions made by the doctor and must note departures from standard treatment protocols that played a role in causing the birth injuries. Our attorneys help plan and coordinate the medical expert report and begin the process of consulting experts to prepare for trial.

Client Reviews
★★★★★
After being involved and a five car accident I contacted Casey Stevens law firm. I was given his number by a fellow coworker at my job who had used him in the past and was very satisfied with his services. The car accident included myself my husband and my son, the accident was determined to be the fault of two drivers involved in the accident. Casey personally came to my home the next day and said down with me and my family at the kitchen table and went over all the events of the accident. There were months and months of physical therapy, doctor visits injections and while my son had to have his mouth wired after having his jaw broke in three places. Casey and his staff worked continuously on our case and after it was all said and done, they where able to get us over $300,000 in damages. I really want to Thank Casey Stevens and his staff for always being available for phone calls and answering any questions I might have. I will continue to recommend potential clients to Casey Stevens law firm. Nina F
