An estimated 20 million children are injured each year as a result of an accident, negligence, or abuse. In many cases, these injuries could have been avoided with simple precautions. Injuries not only cause emotional scars on children, but they can also lead to disabilities and even life-threatening injuries, in some cases. The attorneys at The McIntosh Law Corporation are experienced in handling cases where a child has been injured and are eager to fight for your child's rights.
Often, serious injuries occur when children are in the care of people or organizations other than their parents. These child injuries often occur because of the following situations:
- School bus accidents
- Negligent supervision
- Defective products or toys
- Improper warnings on toys
- Playground equipment accidents or malfunctions
- Sporting accidents
- Recalled products
- Child abuse
- Child neglect
While many children may be fine after an injury, many other children suffer lifelong consequences of an injury, which may include:
- Amputations
- Blindness or eye injuries
- Scarring
- Disfigurement
- Head injuries, including traumatic brain injuries
- Long-term disabilities
- Short-term disabilities
- Paralysis
- Spinal cord injuries
While no parent wants to deal with injury to their child, often, the injury can lead to pain and suffering, as well as time off from work while a parent tends to a child's injuries, medical costs associated with the injury, and more. Having a child injured can cause emotional damage and lead to long-term financial hardship, even if your child recovers quickly.
The attorneys at the McIntosh Law Corporation are dedicated to ensuring that your child's health comes first. We give specialized attention to each family in order to help them receive the results they need from liable parties, which often include financial compensation.
