While some birth injuries, such as bruises, are not unusual and may not cause any long-term damage to the newborn, others are significant and can lead to a lifetime of challenges for the child and their family.

Birth injuries often result from preventable medical errors. Common forms of negligence include delayed C-section decisions, improper use of delivery tools, and failure to monitor fetal distress. Equipment malfunction or misuse, particularly with fetal heart rate monitors and delivery assistance devices, can cause severe complications. Multiple parties may share liability in many cases – from individual healthcare providers to hospitals and equipment manufacturers.
Our experienced Fairfax medical malpractice attorneys, working together with trusted medical experts, can review your case and evaluate the likelihood that your child’s birth injury was caused by the malpractice of one or more of the medical professionals you depended on to care for your child as they entered this world.

Virginia has a law called the Virginia Birth-Related Neurological Injury Compensation Act. This law creates a separate program to provide compensation for certain birth-related injuries that meet the law’s definition of “birth-related neurological injury.”
Virginia’s Birth-Related Neurological Injury Compensation Program, established in 1987, provides benefits for qualifying birth injuries – covering up to 40 hours of weekly home care with a 10-year enrollment window. While the program offers substantial benefits through the Workers’ Compensation Commission, including long-term care costs and lost future earnings, participation prevents filing separate medical malpractice claims.
A birth injury attorney can evaluate whether this program meets your family’s needs or if a lawsuit would better serve your case. When doctors participate in the program and injuries meet specific criteria, claims must go through this system rather than courts. Regan Zambri Long can assess your situation and determine the most appropriate path forward for your family’s case.
Virginia law requires birth injury lawsuits to be filed within two years of the injury under Virginia Code § 8.01-243. Parents typically have two years from the date of their child’s birth injury to seek compensation. Since exceptions may apply based on specific circumstances, consulting a birth injury attorney helps ensure you meet all critical deadlines for your case.
