Stillbirth

We act for clients where the care that they and their unborn child received was sub-standard.

Medical complications before and during birth, including poor monitoring of foetal distress, oxygen deprivation, trapped or compressed umbilical cord, infections and maternal health complications can sadly result in the stillbirth of a child.

There may be a potential clinical negligence claim if treatment the mother received was sub standard. Both parents are entitled to compensation for any injury or loss, including psychiatric injury that may occur after the tragic stillbirth of their child.

During this devastating time, we offer a sympathetic and holistic approach to your legal claim. We communicate directly with your treatment providers, not only to obtain monetary compensation, but to secure an apology if possible.
