Typical Erb's palsy cases involve medical mistakes during vaginal or C-section birth. Doctors may pull too hard on the neck, arms or shoulders when attempting to deliver the baby.

Gestational diabetes and breech births increase the risk of injuries during delivery. Women with these conditions usually have babies larger than average and can put additional pressure on shoulders and arms during delivery.

Most Erb's palsy settlements are concluded outside of court. This is more efficient for all involved and reduces the chance that a jury's verdict could be rescinded on appeal.
