Birth Injuries

Kansas City Birth Injury Lawyers

McLeod & Heinrichs has successfully represented numerous clients in birth injury, shoulder dystocia, and other medical malpractice cases. While achieving significant settlements and verdicts in such cases can be professionally gratifying, the difference our success has made in our clients' lives is the most satisfying aspect of our practice.

In these difficult cases, a successful result can provide a richer and more meaningful future for the child. McLeod & Heinrichs works hard to achieve compensation and justice for birth injuries.

We represent clients who have suffered birth injuries do to medical negligence, such as:

  • Shoulder dystocia and brachial plexus injury
  • Erb's Palsy
  • Cerebral Palsy
  • Mental retardation due to hypoxia
  • And other negligent injuries

If your child has suffered a serious birth injury, his or her future in large part depends on your selection of an experienced and knowledgeable birth injury lawyer. At McLeod & Heinrichs we do all we can to earn and keep that trust.

During the initial investigation period, we carefully examine the medical aspects of your child's situation. Calling upon some of the nation's top medical experts, we determine what the doctor did to cause the injury, or failed to do to prevent the injury. Based on this information and the applicable law, we determine the optimal legal strategy for the case — a strategy designed to obtain maximum compensation and the best outcome possible.

Until this point, neither the client nor our firm is committed to a joint legal effort. Together, our firm and the client make the decision to go forward. If for any reason the client decides to choose another law firm to represent them, we make all of our research available to the client and new counsel.

The attorneys at McLeod & Heinrichs are confident in their abilities to obtain a just and fair outcome. If we represent your child, our goal is nothing less than full and complete compensation for the wrong done. Your child deserves nothing less.
