Brain Injury Lawyer in Dallas
Your Baby’s Brain Injury Deserves Answers. We Can Help.
Serving Parents in Dallas County, Hidalgo County & Statewide
A brain injury diagnosis can change everything, immediately, and often for the rest of your child's life. If your baby suffered a brain injury during labor or delivery, you deserve to know whether it happened because of something a doctor or nurse did wrong, or failed to do at all.
At the Law Office of Kelly Liebbe, we focus our entire practice on birth injury claims and lawsuits. Our firm has built a reputation for judgment, skill, and results, grounded in extensive experience in this field.
Attorney Kelly Liebbe reviews brain injury cases herself, from the moment our firm is retained. She reads your delivery records line by line, works with physicians who can explain exactly what should have happened during your labor and delivery, and tells you honestly whether your child's injury could have been prevented.
We take on a limited number of cases because they require an extensive, meticulous investment of time and resources. When we represent you, you won't be handed off to an intake team. Our clients deal directly with Kelly, from start to finish.
Learn more about your case by booking a confidential consultation with our Dallas brain injury attorney by calling (855) 650-3359 or submitting our online contact form.
Types of Birth-Related Brain Injuries We Handle
Brain injuries during labor and delivery can cause lasting brain damage, a devastating outcome for anyone, but especially for a newborn whose brain is still developing.
These injuries take several forms, and it's common for families to be unsure which one applies to their child, or whether more than one is involved.
Cases we handle include:
- Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) - brain injury caused by oxygen and blood flow deprivation during labor or delivery.
- Cerebral palsy - a lifelong movement and muscle disorder that can result from a birth-related brain injury.
- Intracranial hemorrhage - bleeding inside a baby's skull, which can happen in different layers around or inside the brain, depending on where the bleeding occurs.
- Periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) - damage to the white matter surrounding the brain's ventricles, most often linked to reduced oxygen or blood flow.
- Kernicterus - brain damage caused by severe, untreated newborn jaundice.
- Neonatal seizures - often one of the first visible signs of an underlying brain injury sustained during delivery.
- Skull fracture–related brain trauma - brain injury resulting from physical trauma to the skull during a difficult or instrument-assisted delivery.
Compensation available in these birth injury cases can include past and future medical costs, pain and suffering, mental anguish, and lost income or lost earning capacity for the child.

Lawyers and doctors across Texas refer their patients and families to us to take advantage of Kelly’s thoroughness, legal skills, and steadfast client support.
