Cerebral palsy, a condition caused by brain damage or impaired development, can severely inhibit the brain's ability to control the body, particularly muscle control functions and motor skills. Cerebral palsy is one of the most common birth injuries that can occur as a result of medical malpractice.
Identifying the Signs of Cerebral Palsy
Depending on the severity, cerebral palsy can leave victims unable to perform normal, age-appropriate activities in the short term and render them unable to care for themselves in later years. Cerebral palsy has many potential symptoms, including:
- Difficulty walking
- Seizures
- Slow and uncontrolled movement
- Learning disabilities
- Lack of muscle control
- Impaired vision
- Abnormal posture
Our lawyers have access to some of the best medical experts in Ontario, allowing us to help clients quickly identify the situation they are dealing with as well as all of their treatment options.
