Compassionate Kansas City Birth Injury Lawyers

The birth of a child should be a joyous occasion, unfortunately, this is not always the case.  As experienced Kansas and Missouri birth injury lawyers, we advise aggrieved families coping with the lifelong consequences of a birth injury, such as:

• Brachial Plexus (Erb's Palsy)
• Cerebral Palsy
• Infant Hypoxia
• Brain Damage Due to Oxygen Deprivation
• Shoulder Dystocia

In addition to birth injury claims, our Overland Park lawyers counsel mothers injured as a result of pregnancy complications, including those harmed by brachial plexus during child delivery and gynecological problems.

Experienced Kansas City Nursing Home Malpractice Lawyers

When nursing homes do not provide medical and nursing care in a safe and clean environment, serious injury and death can result.  Negligence can involve direct physical, emotional, and financial abuse.  However, omission of care from well meaning, but inattentive, poorly trained, and overworked caregivers can amount to negligence if harm results.  Signs of such neglect include weight loss as the result of malnutrition, bedsores, and psychological distress.

Skilled Kansas City Legal Malpractice Attorneys

Lawyers are held to high professional standards.  When lawyers fail to act in accordance with these stringent standards, the results can be devastating for individuals and families alike.  Lawyer negligence is preventable- if you have been harmed by the improper or careless conduct of an attorney, we can help you hold them accountable for their actions.  Examples of conduct arising to legal malpractice can include:

• Failure to file documents on time
