If possible, please consult with one of our experienced criminal defense attorneys before speaking to police or Child Protective Services (CPS) workers or even doctors. The authorities ask leading questions designed to elicit answers that can be damaging to you. Parents and caretakers whose only concern is the health of the child often say things that can be twisted and used against them or taken out of context. They can quickly find themselves charged with a crime and fighting to retain custody of their child.

About Shaken Baby Syndrome

Doctors who find retinal hemorrhages and subdural hematomas (bleeding between the brain and the skull) in a child are likely to diagnose the condition as shaken baby syndrome unless the child was in a car accident or fell from a height of greater than six feet. There is a persistent but erroneous belief in the medical community that these symptoms can only be caused by violent shaking of a child, car accidents, and falls from great height. Our attorneys will call on medical experts to prove otherwise.

For effective and experienced defense of all charges related to shaken baby syndrome, you can rely on the attorneys of the Blumenthal Law Offices. Please contact us today for a free consultation and case evaluation.
