Nothing matters more to you than your child’s well-being. Following a serious accident, this means thinking about both his or her short- and long-term care needs.
There are many reasons why families should turn to a lawyer with special experience representing children injured in car accidents and other accidents resulting from negligence.
Legally, there are specific liability issues that apply to minors but not to adults. It is essential to know the standard of care required of a negligent party when seeking compensation, especially if a case must go to trial.
Practically speaking, a lawyer who has handled claims for children understands how to interact with an injured child and his or her family. They often can’t describe the pain they are in, or may be unable to communicate entirely. An experienced lawyer will also know how to structure a settlement — using trusts and other legal tools — to ensure that a child is provided for both now and in the future. With our firm, your child’s recovery and future well-being will be in good hands.
