Georgia HIE Injury Lawyers Fighting for Your Child’s Future

When a child suffers hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy in Georgia, the effects can be devastating — emotionally, physically, and financially. At Tyrone Law, we focus exclusively on helping families navigate the overwhelming and heartbreaking reality of birth injuries, especially HIE. We are Georgia’s most successful birth injury law firm, and we exist to help families afford a lifetime of care for their children.

If your child has been diagnosed with HIE, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to face this battle without help.

 

What is HIE?

Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is a type of brain injury caused by a lack of oxygen (hypoxia) and a reduction in blood flow (ischemia) to a baby’s brain during or shortly after birth. In simple terms, it means the brain was starved of oxygen and nutrients, often due to a preventable event.

 

What causes HIE?

HIE may result from:

• Umbilical cord complications (such as cord prolapse or a tight nuchal cord)
• Placental abruption
• Uterine rupture
• Prolonged labor or delayed delivery
• Failure to monitor fetal distress
• Delayed emergency C-section
• Maternal infection

When medical professionals fail to act quickly or appropriately in these scenarios, the results can be catastrophic. At Tyrone Law, our Georgia HIE injury lawyers investigate these failures in detail to determine whether your child’s injury was preventable — and if so, we fight for the compensation your child deserves.

 

What Are the Effects of HIE?

HIE can lead to a wide range of long-term disabilities, including:

• Cerebral palsy
• Developmental delays
• Seizure disorders
• Cognitive impairments
• Feeding difficulties
• Behavioral issues

Some children may require constant care, special equipment, therapy, and medical interventions throughout their lives. These needs place an immense emotional and financial burden on families — but that’s where we step in.

Your Legal Rights After an HIE Diagnosis

If your child has been diagnosed with HIE, you may be wondering what legal options are available to you. Georgia law allows families to file a medical malpractice claim if a healthcare provider’s negligence caused or contributed to the injury.

As your Georgia HIE injury lawyers, we will:

Review your case for free.
We’ll examine your medical records, timelines, and any relevant documentation to determine if there is a basis for a claim.

Consult with medical experts.
If we believe the injury may have been preventable, we’ll work with leading obstetric and neonatal specialists to evaluate the care provided.

Fight to secure compensation.
If negligence occurred, we will aggressively pursue justice — aiming to recover compensation for:

• Medical expenses (past and future)
• In-home care and therapies
• Special education costs
• Pain and suffering
• Loss of future earning potential

Support you through the process.

We know this is a difficult time. Our entire team is committed to supporting your family with compassion, respect, and transparency.

This is our promise to you, and it guides everything we do.

 

Common Questions About HIE

Is HIE always caused by negligence?
Not always — but many cases are. Medical staff are trained to recognize signs of fetal distress and to act immediately when something goes wrong. If they fail to follow the standard of care, they can and should be held accountable.

How long do I have to file a claim in Georgia?
In most cases, Georgia law gives you two years from the date of injury — but in birth injury cases involving minors, the window may be extended. It’s critical to contact a Georgia HIE injury lawyer as soon as possible to preserve your legal rights.

What happens if I win my case?
A successful case results in a financial recovery, which can include a structured settlement or a trust designed specifically to meet your child’s future needs. We work with financial planners and life care experts to ensure the funds are used wisely and for your child’s benefit.
