Stillbirth & Neo Natal Death Compensation Lawyers Liverpool & North West London
The loss of a baby is a devastating tragedy, and discovering that it may have been preventable makes the pain even harder to bear. If you believe your loss was caused by medical errors during pregnancy or labour, you deserve answers and accountability.
At GAD Legal, our specialist stillbirth and neonatal death solicitors provide compassionate legal support to bereaved parents. We are here to investigate exactly what went wrong and help you secure the compensation needed to support your family through this difficult time.
The clinical and medical negligence team at Gregory Abrams Davidson Solicitors have represented many bereaved parents and we are therefore, sadly, very experienced in dealing with these tragic cases.
Common Medical Causes of Baby Loss
Whilst the majority of postmortems are inconclusive with no known cause of death being found, some known causes of stillbirth and neonatal death are as follows:
- Congenital Malformation
- Infection
- Maternal health problems such as Pre-Eclampsia or Gestational Diabetes
- Incompetent Cervix
- Placenta and Umbilical cord (Placental Insufficiency, Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome, Placental Abruption, True Umbilical Cord Knots
- Intrauterine Growth Restriction (IUGR)
- Meconium Aspiration
- Premature Rupture of Membranes (PROM)
Our team of medical negligence solicitors and litigation executives have many years of experience in dealing with the difficult medical and legal issues associated with still birth and neo natal death cases. If you need guidance with your case, call us today on 0151 236 5000 for our Liverpool office or 020 8209 0166 for our London office or complete our online contact form for more information.
Was the Death Preventable? (Medical Negligence Factors)
Whilst many stillbirth and neonatal deaths cannot be avoided many are sadly caused as a direct result of clinical and medical negligence.
Often cases of still birth and neonatal death are caused by the mismanagement of labour, in particular:
- A failure to carry out or properly interpret a CTG
- A failure to adequately monitor during pregnancy
- A failure to recognise signs and symptoms including red flags
- A delay or failure to perform an emergency c-section.
In cases of neonatal death, a Coroner’s Inquest may be held to determine the exact cause. Our solicitors can represent you during this difficult process, ensuring the right questions are asked to uncover the truth about the care provided.
How We Can Help You Seek Justice
There are times when a stillbirth has been caused by professional negligence by the medical experts involved in your case. If you think you have suffered due to this negligence, we can help you gain the compensation you and your family deserve. We understand that the trauma of losing a child often leads to significant psychological suffering. Our claims process specifically accounts for this psychiatric injury (such as PTSD), ensuring you are compensated for the impact on your own mental health as well as your loss.
