Cerebral palsy is caused by brain damage, which may sometimes be the result of medical malpractice. An injury to the brain may occur because of oxygen deprivation, trauma during labor and delivery, or undetected and untreated maternal infections. The warning signs that a child may have cerebral palsy include muscle weakness and poor motor control. Speech and language delays, crawling delays or uncoordinated crawling, and muscle floppiness or stiffness are other possible indicators of cerebral palsy.
