If the birth of your child was not straightforward and failures occurred during the procedure, brain damage may have occurred. Oxygen deprivation is a major cause of this condition and could have been the result of your midwife or obstetrician not interpreting test results correctly, or another clinical misjudgement. Any of the following causes, if shown to be due to act of medical negligence, could lead to a cerebral palsy claim:
