From offices in Ann Arbor, we provide legal help to people throughout the state of Michigan. If your child has been diagnosed with Erb's palsy or any other type of birth injury, we can help you understand your options. Contact us today to schedule a confidential consultation.

Effectively Protecting the Victims of Doctor Negligence

One of the most common causes of Erb's palsy is difficulty during childbirth combined with incorrect delivery techniques. Improper movement of a child's head and neck can cause damage to the nerves within the child's shoulder. This damage can result in paralysis, leaving the child unable to use an arm.

Some cases of Erb's palsy heal on their own with time, but others require intensive physical therapy or even surgery. This medical treatment can be expensive, time-consuming and traumatic for a very young child.

Our lawyers work diligently to ensure the victims of doctor negligence do not have to face the consequences alone. Our attorneys, Don Ferris and Heidi Salter-Ferris have more than 60 years of combined legal experience, and are veterans of more than 250 jury trials.
