Shaken Baby Syndrome Lawyer, Christopher Keane, San Francisco, California, explains that Shaken Baby Syndrome can cause long term disabilities
Description: If the baby survives the injuries, the symptoms may change over the course of several years from the shaken baby incident. As the baby grows and develops to the ages where higher functioning skills are expected, the true measure of the disabilities the child experiences will become evident. It is common for infants that are victims of Shaken Baby Syndrome to experience learning disabilities and physical limitations as a result of their injuries. Rehabilitative treatment is likely to be necessary long after the date of the abuse occurs. If you have a baby who has been shaken and you need help, call Christopher Keane and the Keane Law Firm, or go to wesbite www.shakenbabylawyers.com.

Shaken Baby Syndrome Lawyer, Christopher Keane, San Francisco, California, explains how Shaken Baby Syndrome can cause traumatic brain injury and brain damage in babies
Description: Shaken Baby Syndrome Lawyer and Attorney, Christopher Keane, of San Francisco, California, explains that shaken baby syndrome causes traumatic brain injury and brain damage to babies.

This cases inflammation, bleeding and tearing of nerve fibers inside the brain which can cause irreversible brain damage or death. Keane provides link to website providing resources to families caring for a child who has suffered shaken baby syndrome.
