Law Firm Overview Free Consultation

The Becker Law Firm, L.P.A., is an experienced, dedicated law firm with office locations in Cleveland and Elyria, Ohio. Our attorneys have decades of experience representing individuals and families dealing with the emotional and financial consequences of medical malpractice, birth injury, and other catastrophic injuries caused by medical negligence. Our lawyers have also assisted in birth injury litigation in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Illinois.

Our lawyers have helped hundreds of families through our legal practice obtain financial compensation for birth injuries caused by medical malpractice, from failure to prevent birth asphyxia to brachial plexus injuries caused by improper management of shoulder dystocia. We are known for taking on challenging cases and obtaining significant — in some cases record-setting — results for our clients. In addition to birth injury claims, we represent clients in personal injury and medical malpractice cases involving catastrophic personal injury and wrongful death caused by negligence.

Our attorneys fight to compensate parents for the emotional and financial burden of caring for a child with special needs or the heartbreak of losing a baby. Our efforts have helped to reveal negligent conduct in prenatal care, management of labor and childbirth, and negligence in neonatal care. We also fight to gain compensation for people who suffered life-altering injuries caused by medical malpractice and other forms of negligence, as well as the survivors of those who died a wrongful death.

Practice Areas Description

Our practice areas are as follows:

- Birth Injury

You may have a claim for monetary damages if the actions, decisions or inactions of health care professionals resulted in serious injury or death during pregnancy, labor or delivery. The Becker Law Firm, L.P.A., represents clients in birth injury and death cases statewide and beyond. We have experience with many types of birth injury cases: Asphyxia, Birth Injury, Birth Trauma, Cerebral Palsy (CP), CPD: Cephalopelvic Disproportion, Erb's/Klumpke's Palsy, Forceps Injury, Negligence during Pregnancy, Obstetrics/Pediatrics, and Shoulder Dystocia Cases.

- Medical Malpractice

Mistakes happen in the medical field. However, when treatment falls below the accepted standard of medical care and injury or death results, it is a case of medical malpractice. We handle a wide range of medical malpractice lawsuits, including those involving: Hospital malpractice; Nursing home negligence; Emergency room errors; Postoperative care errors; Medication errors; Failure to diagnose; Brain injuries; Spinal cord injuries; Wrongful death. Our medical malpractice lawyers have extensive experience and a proven record of success obtaining results for our clients. If you or someone close to you has been harmed due to negligent medical treatment, we are here to stand up for your rights.

- Personal Injury

Our law firm is very selective about the types of personal injury and medical malpractice cases we accept. Our focus is on providing legal services in cases involving permanent, life-altering injury or fatality. In short, we pursue claims for the people who did not get better, who will never be able to return to the life they led before the injury. We review cases involving: Traumatic brain injury; Hypoxic or anoxic brain injuries caused by lack of oxygen to the brain; Spinal cord injuries that cause permanent paralysis or nerve damage; Severe burns; Amputations; Permanent loss of function; Loss of sight or hearing; Other life-altering injuries; and, Wrongful death.

- Wrongful Death

A wrongful death claim is not about the money. It's about justice. It's about holding doctors, nurses and hospitals accountable for negligence. It's about recognition of the heartache that lasts forever. Hopefully, it can help assure that no other family will suffer the same tragedy. The attorneys and staff of The Becker Law Firm, L.P.A., realize that a lawsuit, even a successful one, cannot begin to compensate for the loss or fully explain why this happened. We are here to answer your questions and help in any way we can.

- Brain Injuries

Medical malpractice can lead to brain injuries in a number of ways. If you or a loved one has suffered a brain injury due to physician error, hospital negligence or any medical mistake, it is important to consult with an experienced medical malpractice lawyer. A brain injury is a life-changing condition that can leave the victim unable to work, relate to others and enjoy activities. Our attorneys will work to fully assess the damage this brain injury has had to you or your loved one's life. We have significant trial experience and will work to help you obtain full and fair compensation for the losses you have suffered.

- Spinal Cord Injuries

If you or a loved one has suffered a spinal cord injury and you suspect a medical mistake may have played a role, it is important to consult with an experienced medical malpractice attorney. Spinal cord injuries can result in paralysis in the form of paraplegia or quadriplegia, causing victims to rely upon extensive physical therapy, adaptive equipment and modified living conditions. Pursuing a medical malpractice claim can help you obtain the resources you need to pay for your treatment and live a fulfilling life.
