The serious injury or death of a child is an event that impacts not only the life of the child, but also the lives of those who care for them. The injuries suffered by the child can have profound effects upon their physical, emotional and intellectual development.

Children involved in premises related accidents, occurrences involving lack of proper supervision, accidents involving pedestrians/bicycles and motor vehicles, trip and fall and/or slip and fall accidents, product liability matters, medical malpractice as well as many other cases may have the right to recover damages.

The wrongful death of a child vests a cause of action for the parents of the deceased as long as the child was not married or legally emancipated. It is very important to seek professional consultation when handling an injury to a child.

Since those under the age of eighteen do not have legal capacity to bring a law suit to court in their own name, it is the responsibility of the parent or legal guardian to protect the interests of their children.

If your child has been seriously injured as a result of someone's negligence, please contact us to discuss your situation.
