Oklahoma Birth Injury Attorneys

Birth Injuries Lawyers serving Oklahoma City, Tulsa and cities throughout Oklahoma

March, 2024 Update: In Oklahoma, there are many types of Birth Injuries that can occur during the delivery process due to the medical negligence of Doctors, Nurses and Hospitals.

Birth Injuries to a child can range from minor to catastrophic resulting in permanent disability and requiring lifetime medical treatment and family care.

For over 40 years, our Oklahoma Birth Injury Law Firm has successfully represented and recovered millions of dollars for our birth injury and other personal injury clients.

There is a strict Oklahoma Statute of Limitations relating to any birth injury, or wrongful death caused by a birth injury that limits the amount of time you have to file a legal claim.

If your baby has suffered a birth injury here in Oklahoma due to the actions or negligence of anyone else, please contact Oklahoma Birth Injury Attorney James Self, at Self & Associates, for a free consultation -- or call us right now at the toll-free phone number below.

  • Traumatic Delivery
  • Improper use of Forceps

  • Brachial Plexus Injury - (also known as Erb's Palsy ) is a paralysis or weakness of the of the arm caused by stretching of the nerves around the baby's shoulder as the baby travels through the birth canal. The nerve injury can occur due to excessive force in pulling the arm during birth or other excessive pressure on the shoulders.

  • Brain Damage - Can occur during delivery leaving a child with profound injuries. Lack of oxygen or bleeding inside the brain can result from improper delivery. Infections during pregnancy undetected by the doctor can also result in brain damage.
