Support and legal guidance for families affected by birth injuries and traumatic births
Compassionate, expert legal support for mothers, babies and families after a difficult or negligent birth.
When a birth doesn’t go as planned and medical mistakes cause harm to you or your baby, the consequences can be life changing. At Tees, our specialist birth injury solicitors help families understand what went wrong, seek justice and secure the compensation needed for care, therapy and stability in the years ahead. We’ll guide you through every step with honesty, sensitivity and practical advice you can trust.
If something has gone wrong with your medical care and it’s affected your health or recovery, you may be entitled to compensation.
Our experienced team supports families through cases involving:
- Injuries to mothers – including tears, infection, or undiagnosed complications.
- Injuries to babies – such as cerebral palsy, brain injury, oxygen deprivation, use of excessive force or improper use of forceps.
- Stillbirth and neonatal death – where errors in antenatal care, labour monitoring or postnatal treatment led to devastating loss.
- Delayed diagnosis or missed warning signs – during pregnancy, labour or immediately after birth.
We act quickly to gather evidence, obtain expert medical opinions and build a strong case, so you can focus on recovery and your family.
