Cerebral Palsy

Do you know or take care of a child with cerebral palsy?  If you do, we can help you help that child make a claim to pay for medical expenses, home health care, medical equipment, wheelchairs, walkers and therapy.  We can also help make a claim to get you a new barrier-free home and provide much-needed assistance for your family in taking care of the child with cerebral palsy.  Also, in case you are worried about taking care of the child if something happens to you as the parent or guardian of a child with cerebral palsy, we can help you with that, too - by setting up a trust for your child's care, comfort and safety.

Cerebral palsy is a form of injury to the brain.  Cerebral palsy can be caused during pregnancy, during birth or after birth.  Some of the causes of cerebral palsy after birth are reported to be exposure to toxic substances, exposure to elevated levels of bilirubin (hyperbilirubinemia) which causes jaundice, lead poisoning, shaken baby syndrome and accidents which cause a loss of oxygen to the brain - such as drowning.  Cerberal palsy can also be caused by infection - including bacterial infections and viral infections, such as menintigis or encaphalitis.  The loss of oxygen for a child can also be caused by choking (on an unsafe toy or foreign object) and suffocation (under plastic bags, for example).  Other terms you may have heard of for loss of oxygen are anoxia and hypoxia.  If you have a child who has those words on his or her medical records, or discharge summary, please call us and we may be able to answer questions to help you help the child with cerebral palsy.

A child with cerebral palsy, sometimes known as CP, will have medical bills which need to be paid, and may need home health care, attendant care, special support for the family and may need special rehabilitation.  This includes physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and vocational rehabilitation.  Cerebral palsy, CP or any form of brain damage in a child can place a family under tremendous stress - both financial stress from medical bills and emotional stress from taking care of the child 24 hours a day.

Unpaid medical bills may be mounting on your family's stack of mail and bills, and the child with cerebral palsy  or other form of brain damage may need around the clock home nursing care to keep clean, healthy and as happy as possible.  The parents or guardians of the child with the injured brain, or other family members who take care of a child with damage to the brain, may need a break from caring for the injured child.  This is known as respite care.  Where can a parent or guardian turn if they need help with medical bills?  If they need help taking care of the child with cerebral palsy  or brain damage?  If they need to get some respite care?

Christopher Keane, a California personal injury lawyer and attorney for children with cerebral palsy and other forms of brain damage and his law firm will help a child get his or her medical bills paid, and get attendant and respite care for the family.
