Maternal Injuries Sustained in Childbirth - A Guide for Clinical Negligence Lawyers

Introduction

Are you aware that maternal birth injuries are often overlooked in clinical practice and when evaluating claims?

This important webinar will help practitioners identify potential claims related to maternal birth injuries and highlight which cases are most likely to succeed. Recent attention, sparked by Theo Clarke’s paper ‘Listen to Mums: Ending the postcode lottery on perinatal care’, has brought much-needed focus to the shortcomings in maternity care - issues that are now attracting greater public interest and likely to lead to more claims.

This webinar will cover the reported cases in this area and provide you with a better insight into how to determine merits of a case and how to obtain more information from clients on a very sensitive subject area.
