Caring for a child who is injured at birth is not only emotionally challenging but also financially taxing. Birth injuries sustained during labor or delivery may require life-long care.

The attorneys at Grant & Eisenhofer P.A. are experienced, compassionate and willing to fight for your child against negligent healthcare providers to obtain the compensation your family deserves.
