Michigan HIE Lawyer Representing Victims of Medical Malpractice
Many of the cases our Detroit, Michigan HIE attorneys fight for are hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy HIE cases. As we discuss on this page of our website, HIE is a type of neonatal brain injury that occurs when a baby or fetus’ brain doesn’t receive enough oxygenated blood around the time of delivery. HIE can cause cerebral palsy, permanent brain damage, seizures and epilepsy, cognitive disabilities, learning disabilities, movement disorders, death, and more. Needless to say, it is a very dangerous birth injury. The conditions, injuries, and obstetrical complications that cause HIE are considered emergencies. Throughout this page, a Michigan HIE lawyer from our legal team will discuss more about HIE, birth injury, and medical malpractice. Additionally, we will cover some of our past HIE cases.
