Our compensation claims lawyers specialise in providing expert legal guidance to families who have been affected by Group B Streptococcus (GBS). GBS is a bacterial infection that can be passed from mother to baby during childbirth and can have serious consequences, including physical harm, emotional distress, and financial loss.
Our Group B step compensation claims solicitors are highly experienced and well-versed in the complex issues involved in GBS claims, including diagnosis, treatment, and care. We work tirelessly to hold medical professionals accountable for their actions and to secure the compensation that our clients deserve.
Group B Streptococcus is a type of bacteria commonly found in the digestive tract and genital tract. While it is usually harmless, it can cause severe infections in newborns, pregnant women and people with weakened immune systems.
Approximately one in five pregnant women in the UK carry the bacteria known as Group B Streptococcus and there is a small risk that this can be passed on to the baby during their birth, which can have serious consequences. This could potentially result in infections in the blood, lungs or brain lining for the baby and may lead to long-term conditions such as:
Cerebral palsy
Brain injury
Sight loss
Hearing loss
Significant learning difficulties
If your child contracted Group B Streptococcus and one of the resulting long-term or permanent conditions due to the negligence of the medical professionals during or after childbirth, you might be eligible to claim compensation.
If your Group B Streptococcus claim for compensation is successful, you will be awarded a sum of money to help pay for the care and support that your child needs to ensure that they have the best possible quality of life.
