Injuries to Minors and Children

Individuals under the age of 18 cannot file a lawsuit without the help of a parent, adult or guardian. Children and teens are at high risk for many injuries including those caused by:

  • Motor vehicle occupant, traffic related accidents
  • Fireworks
  • Firearms
  • Playground equipment
  • Poisoning
  • Residential fires
  • Head injuries
  • Swimming/Water park related accidents/injuries
  • Pedestrian, traffic related
  • Products liability
  • Premise liability
  • Skating, Skateboarding or Bicycling accidents
  • Suffocation
  • Falls

Quite often these types of injuries can lead to death, permanent impairment and/or scaring. The parent or care giver of a severely injured child is left to deal with the extraordinary costs that may be involved with the care of the child into and through adulthood. Often the insurance carriers attempt to switch the focus from the responsible party to the fault of the parent. Our experienced staff will work to insure that you and your child are sufficiently compensated for medical costs, lost wages and any permanent impairment or disability.
