Big Chad Law believes in kindness and honesty. We do not want you to feel like just another file. If your child is hurt, we know you are worried about medical bills, therapy, and what the future might hold. We will listen to your story, explain legal details in simple language, and let you make the right choices for your family.

We also work on a contingency fee basis. That means you do not pay us unless we recover money for you. This arrangement lets you focus on caring for your baby instead of stressing about legal bills. We want every family to access quality legal help, regardless of income.

We have a track record of success for our clients. Part of that comes from understanding Chandler and the greater Phoenix area. Our Chandler office is at 255 N. Arizona Avenue, near some of the city’s well-known sites like the historic downtown area and Chandler Center for the Arts. Being rooted here helps us know the local medical centers, hospitals, and the courts that handle these cases. Our local experience means we can move quickly to gather evidence and talk to professionals who understand Arizona birth injury law.

When you choose Big Chad Law, you pick a team ready to stand by your side. We will speak to hospitals, insurance companies, and other parties so you can concentrate on your baby’s health. We are on your team from start to finish, no matter how tough the fight becomes.

One of the first questions parents ask is: “How much money can we get for our baby’s birth injury?” The answer depends on many things. Every child and situation is unique. Here are some common factors:

Medical Bills

If your newborn needs extra treatment, surgeries, or therapy, those costs can be very high. We look at current bills and future expenses.

Ongoing Care

Some birth injuries, like cerebral palsy or Erb’s palsy, may require years of physical therapy or special equipment. We hire professionals to estimate how much this long-term care will cost.

You might need to stay home or reduce work hours to care for your child. Those lost earnings can be part of your claim.

You can include your baby's pain and the emotional toll on your family. Arizona law allows you to seek compensation for things like stress and anxiety or lost enjoyment of life if a medical mistake caused harm.

In the most tragic cases, a baby passes away because of a medical error. Under A.R.S. § 12-611, families may file a wrongful death lawsuit, which can include funeral costs, medical bills, and the emotional impact of losing a child.

The best way to find out what your specific case might be worth is to talk to our Chandler birth injury lawyers. We will review your medical records, talk to professionals, and calculate the full scope of your baby’s needs.

A birth injury can happen before, during, or right after a baby is born. Some injuries are mild and heal quickly, while others cause lasting harm. Common types include:

• Cerebral Palsy: Often linked to lack of oxygen or an infection that damages the baby’s brain, causing movement and muscle control issues.
• Erb’s Palsy (Brachial Plexus Injury): This can result from pulling too hard on a baby’s arm or shoulder during birth, causing nerve damage that may lead to weakness or paralysis in the arm.
• Fractures: Babies have delicate bones, and rough handling or a difficult birth can cause broken bones like the clavicle.
• Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy (HIE): A condition where the baby’s brain does not get enough oxygen. This can lead to seizures, learning problems, or developmental delays.
• Facial Paralysis: If forceps or vacuums put too much pressure on a baby’s face, they can harm facial nerves. This may lead to temporary or permanent paralysis.
• Brain Bleeds: Vacuum extractions or other traumatic deliveries can cause bleeding in the skull, damaging brain tissue.

Not every birth injury results from negligence. Sometimes, these problems happen even when doctors do their best. But if a doctor, nurse, or other medical person broke the rules of good care (the “standard of care”) or made an avoidable mistake, that might be medical malpractice under A.R.S. § 12-563. If malpractice caused your baby’s injury, you can seek compensation.

If you believe your baby suffered a birth injury in Chandler, here are steps you can take right away:

• Gather Medical Records: Request your baby’s birth records, maternal records, and any notes from the hospital. This paperwork can show if staff missed signs of trouble or used risky methods.
• Follow All Medical Advice: Ensure your baby gets the necessary care. Go to follow-up visits, see specialists, and keep track of all treatments. Skipping appointments might hurt your case and your baby’s health.
• Document Everything: Keep a journal of your baby’s symptoms, doctor visits, and your own emotions. This can help show how the injury affects everyday life.
• Call Big Chad Law: The sooner you call, the better. We can start gathering evidence, talking to professionals, and guiding you on the next steps. We also watch the clock—under A.R.S. § 12-542, you often have two years to file a medical malpractice claim, though special rules may apply for minors.
• Do Not Sign Anything Without Legal Advice: If the hospital or insurance company offers money or sends you forms, talk to a birth injury attorney first. You might give up important rights if you sign too soon.

Some parents wonder, “Do I even need a lawyer? Can’t I just talk to the hospital?” In our experience, that can be risky. Hospitals and insurance companies rarely hand out large checks out of kindness. They often look out for their bottom line.

By coming to us, you get:

• Experience: We know how to show a medical mistake happened and how to prove it.
• Access to Professionals: We work with medical professionals who will explain to a judge or jury how the healthcare provider failed to follow the standard of care and harmed your baby.
• Legal Knowledge: We stay current on laws like A.R.S. § 12-562 (about malpractice grounds) and other rules. We make sure to file paperwork correctly and on time.
• Compassion and Support: We care about your baby’s well-being. We will keep you informed at every stage and treat you like family.
• Negotiation Skills: We will resist the insurance company's attempts to lowball you. We know how to build a strong case and will not settle for less than you need.
