Depakote Abnormal Digits Attorney
A birth defect is a health problem or abnormality that arises while a child is developing in the womb. While some birth defects can be treated, others involve deformities to the body that can be difficult to modify. One such birth defect is the development of abnormal digits.
If you took Depakote while pregnant and your child was born with a deformity affecting his or her fingers or toes, the drug may be the cause of your child’s birth defect. Share your story with the Depakote abnormal digits lawyers of Williams Kherkher at 800-761-3187 to discuss the possibility of issuing a lawsuit for your child’s defect.
Finger and Toe Birth Defects
Some birth defects affecting a baby’s fingers and toes will be immediately noticeable when a child is born or even while he or she is still in the womb. Other defects may require a closer inspection of the baby to be noticeable but could still be significant. Some possible finger and toe birth defects that could affect your newborn are:
- Fused digits
- Missing or extra digits
- Short digits
- Weak or nonfunctional tendons
- Nerve defects
Depakote has been linked to an increased risk of a number of different birth defects, including abnormal digits. If you took Depakote during your pregnancy and your baby was born with a birth defect, you may be able to take legal action against the drug manufacturer. An experienced Depakote lawsuit attorney can help to clarify the legal options available to you and will guide you through the process of pursuing a lawsuit for financial compensation.
