What Causes Erbs Palsy?

The most common cause of Erbs palsy is dystocia, from a problematic childbirth.

When a difficult birth takes place, it can cause the infant’s head and neck to be negligently and recklessly pulled toward the side at the same time as the shoulders pass through the birth canal. Erbs Palsy can also be caused by negligent pulling by the doctor or medical professional on the shoulders during a delivery in which the fetus is head first, or by pressure on the raised arms during a feet first delivery known as a breech delivery. 

Erbs Palsy injuries involve the nerves known as suprascapular nerve, musculocutaneous nerve, and the axillary nerve.

^{SIGNS AND RESULTS OF ERBS PALSY}

The signs and results of Erb’s Palsy are devastating to the child and the child’s family.  Signs such as paralysis, lack of sensation in the arm and atrophy and paralysis  in the arm and deltoid, biceps, and brachialis muscles.  Typically, you will notice the arm hanging by its side unable to be raised.  The ability to operate the elbow and forearm is also lost.

The results of an Erbs Palsy condition are catastrophic from an emotional, financial and medical standpoint.  The level of the injury is dependent, of course, on the degree of nerve damage and what medical treatment is received and how quickly it is received upon discovery of Erbs Palsy.

Scaffolding is abundant in New York due to all of the skyscrapers.  As such, there are many scaffolding accidents on construction sites.  New York lawyers handling construction accidents are particularly atuned to the frequency of scaffolding related accident injuries.

Workers that sustain injuries while on New York scaffolding usually sustain catastrophic injuries.  There are many ways a New York construction worker, or anyone for that matter, can get injured on a scaffolding.  The scaffolding can collapse, break or be installed or repaired negligently.  Other frequent injuries involving scaffolding can be simply from the worker slipping, tripping or falling from the scaffold.

The result of a New York scaffolding accident typcially involves catastrophic injuries for the construction worker.  The types of injuries include spinal cord injuries, fracture or broken bones, paralysis or even death. 

It is critical that the OSHA safety regulations, New York workers compensation and labor laws are abided by.  Many times an injured construction worker in New York needs the help of a seasoned scaffolding accident lawyer to advise him on the benefits he is entitled via workers compensation, the union and other labor laws of our great city.

Choosing an experienced labor law lawyer and scaffolding accident lawyer is vital.  Many times an injured accident worker is out of work due to his injuries for an extended period of time.  His ability to provide for his family is challenged.  That is where we come in.  If you or a loved one was injured in a scaffolding accident call the Scaffolding Accident Lawyers at 1(800)WE-FIGHT.

New York forklift accidents are prevalent because of the demand for construction timelines to be met at the expense of safety laws and procedures.  It is this emphasis on speed of completion in the construction project and not safety laws (such as OSHA laws, labor laws and workers rights ) that leads to catastrophic injuries.

The types of forklift accidents include pressuring the forklift operator to work faster or causing the forklift to be overburdened by too large a load.  The result is devastating and usually results in the forklift to roll over. 

When a forklift accident happens or a forlift rolls over the injuries that a forklift operator or other workers sustain are many times serious and permanent in nature.

The types of injuries we typically see are crush injuries, fractures and broken bones, spinal cord injuries and sometimes paralysis or death.

If you or a loved one was injured in a forklift accident call the aggressive  Forklift Accident Lawyers at 1(800)WE-FIGHT for a free consultation.

One may think that a guardrail cannot be defective.  However, that thought is false.  A guardrail can be defective in the following ways:

1) Design defect of the guardrail; 2) manufacturers defect of the guardrail; 3) incorrect installation of the guardrail; 4) faulty guardrail maintenance; and 5) negligent or shoddy guardrail repairs.

The purpose of a guardrail is obvious.  But, what most people do not know is that a guardrail must react to a collision in a specific way.  If someone is involved in an accident on the road involving a guardrail and that accident was catastrophic in nature, the accident many times could have or should have been minor if it wasn’t for the guardrail.

The key to successfully litigating a defective guardrail case is to follow up with an attorney immediately so that the proper photographs and investigation of the guardrail can be conducted by your lawyers experts.

If you or a loved one were involved in an accident and a guardrail was hit please call the Guardrail Lawyers at 1(800)WE-FIGHT for a free consultation.  No fee unless we win your case.  We have convenient locations all over New York.  Hospital and home visits are available.

The headlines out of the Daily News today, June 3, 2010, says it all.

Officer Hoyoung Kim was off duty last month and drunk when he crashed his car in the Bronx.  The result, he killed himself a friend on the New York Police Department and injred four women. 

His blood alcohol level was 0.16, double the legal limit in New York of 0.08.  His fellow colleague who also lost his life, Office Edwin Paulino was also wasted with a blood-alcohol level of 0.21.

Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly informed reporters of the toxicology reports.  When asked by reporters if he was surprised the Commissioner replied “no comment.” 

The crash occurred on May 16, 2010 and the mother, Sabina Ramirez, 47, of two sisters Iris, 27, and Jazmin, 23, critically hurt in the crash on the Bronx River Parkway is beside herself.  They were taken to Jacobi Medical Center where they remain in critical condition.

Iris suffered a broken pelvis, two fractured legs and a spinal cord injury.  The other victims, Shirley Torres, 26 and Melina Ramirez, 27, also remain hospitalized in Jacobi Medical Center.

There seems to be no end to the negligence and recklessness of drunk drivers in the Bronx.  I expect more from a New York Police Officer and they must understand that they are held to a higher duty given their special place in our society as the perveyors of law and order.  It is a shame that a few bad apples have to ruin the reputation of the whole department.

If you or a loved one has been injured in a car accident involving a drunk driver or any type of accident please call the car accident lawyers at 1(800)WE-FIGHT.

The BP Gulf oil spill disaster is the worst environmental disaster in United States history.  Experts fear that the oil spill could affect the Mississippi and Alabama coasts.

The public is and should be completely outraged at the failure of BP to properly prevent or put measures in place to minimize the damage and the governments failure to step up in a timely manner to stop this oil spill disaster.

British Petroleum (BP) and the United States government warn that the damaged deep water well feeding the spill will not be contained and/or stopped until sometime in August.

This is simply unacceptable.  With limitless resources from the U.S. government and BP what is the problem.  This is the biggest enviromental catastrophy that continues to get worse.  It may expand to Mississippi Delta and Florida and has already devastated Louisiana.

If you or anyone you know has been injured or damaged as a result of BP’s Oil Spill call lawyers experienced in Oil Spill lawsuits at 1(800)WE-FIGHT.  We have lawyers standing by nationwide.
