If your child was injured in an accident, your family could face unexpected medical bills, out-of-pocket expenses, and other hardships. When someone else’s negligence leads to your child’s injury, the at-fault party should be held responsible for the losses your child and family have suffered.
An experienced Spartanburg child injury lawyer could help review your family’s claim and seek financial compensation. Our attorneys at KD Trial Lawyers are licensed in both North and South Carolina for personal injury cases.
Common Types of Child Injuries
Children are vulnerable to cuts, bruises, burns, and other injuries due to their adventurous natures and small builds. Playground falls, bike accidents, sports injuries, and other accidents are common, unfortunately. Sometimes, however, a child is injured because of someone else’s negligence. These injuries can be damaging and even catastrophic.
In addition to the trauma a child goes through, an injury can lead to unexpected medical bills and other overwhelming costs for the child’s family. The following accidents are some of the most frequent causes of child injuries:
Car Accidents
Vehicle collisions are especially dangerous for children, as they can suffer devastating injuries if they are hit by a negligent driver while riding in a vehicle or struck while in public walkways—especially in areas near schools
School Injuries
Schools are a high-risk area for harm because children spend so much of their time there, and injuries can happen on the playground due to negligent supervision, by other students due to lack of oversight by school staff, or on school buses
Premises Liability Accidents
Children are especially susceptible to slip and fall accidents at swimming pools, museums, amusement parks, and other areas that attract their attention, and if property owners fail to keep their property safe, they can be held legally liable for damages
Daycare Accidents
Childcare and daycare centers in South Carolina are subject to regulations and safety standards, but sometimes rules are ignored, and a childcare center will employ unqualified staff, allow unsafe toys and equipment to be used, and fail to keep the center clean and sanitary for the children they supervise
Animal Attacks
Pet owners have a responsibility to keep their animals under control, as unrestrained or unattended pets can bite those around them, inflicting serious and sometimes tragic wounds on a child
Our Spartanburg attorneys understand how traumatic these injuries can be for your child and family, and could help you fight toward recovery.
