If you have a child you suspect suffers from a birth injury or birth defect but you are not sure when the injury happened or who is at fault, you may benefit from the services of a birth injury lawyer. A birth injury lawyer handles cases where babies' injuries occur during pregnancy or birth, even when the problem does not appear until later. Examples of birth injuries are cerebral palsy, brachial plexus injury, brain damage, and broken bones.

Brain damage can be caused by many different factors which can be difficult to pinpoint, as symptoms do not always surface right away. Brain injury lawyers know the medical factors causing these injuries and the best medical experts for a particular case. Brain injury lawyers can help you understand the nature of the injury and how it occurred, and discover who is responsible.

When you are injured by a poorly designed or poorly made product, or by a product that should have carried a warning label, you may benefit from the services of a defective and dangerous products lawyer. Many drugs, including the arthritis drug Vioxx and diet aids containing Phenylpropanolamine, are considered dangerous products, as are some medical devices (heart defibrillators) and ordinary appliances (space heaters). Asbestos and tobacco are also considered inherently dangerous.
