If you believe that an error by a doctor, nurse or midwife caused serious or catastrophic injury to your child, you have legal rights that must be protected.

The aftermath of a birth injury can be devastating — for the newborn, the family and its loved ones. The cost of long-term care for a child with Erb’s palsy or cerebral palsy has been estimated at more than a million dollars over a lifetime. Unexpected expenses abound, including costs of medications, rehabilitation, therapy, special schooling and assistive devices.

At The Mercaldo Law Firm , founding attorney Ron Mercaldo has more than 40 years of experience successfully representing Arizona families in birth injury cases that result from medical negligence.

The Attorneys with the Mercaldo Law Firm are some of Arizona and San Diego’s top litigation lawyers. We work hard with investigation of medical errors as well as negotiation with and litigation against insurance companies in courts of law. The record of jury verdicts, totaling millions of dollars for our clients, is well known throughout the state.

We urge you to contact The Mercaldo Law Firm if you suspect that medical negligence led to your child’s birth injury or wrongful death of a mother or child. 

Your initial consultation is free of charge, and can be conducted at our law office, your home or your child’s hospital room.
