Louisville Brachial Plexus Injury Lawyers
Erb’s Palsy & Brachial Plexus Injuries Linked to Malpractice in Kentucky
The brachial plexus is a collection of nerves that run from the spinal cord out to the shoulders, hands, and arms. When one or more of these nerves is torn, stretched, or damaged during childbirth, the outcome is often permanent. The child may spend the rest of his or her life with a limp or paralyzed arm, numbness, or lack of muscle control.
If this personal injury was caused by negligence during birth, you have the right to seek compensation for the lifelong care your child will need. Our Louisville birth injury attorneys are dedicated to helping you get that compensation. Paul A. Casi, II has been representing the injured since 1994, and together, our attorneys have more than 35 years of combined legal experience to apply to our clients’ cases.
