        "text": "It is crucial to contact a birth injury lawyer as soon as you suspect your child's injury may have been caused by medical negligence. There are strict time limits, known as statutes of limitations, for filing these types of claims, which vary by state and can be complex. Early consultation allows the legal team to promptly investigate, preserve critical evidence, and assess the viability of your case before key information becomes unavailable. Even if you're unsure, an initial consultation can provide clarity on your options.",
