Liability in Child Injury Cases 

Children suffer scrapes and bruises almost on a daily basis while playing. These are to be expected. However, there are times when children are seriously injured as a result of accidents. While many of these severe injuries are unintentional, most are a result of accidents that could have been avoided. These accidents often occur as a result of negligence on the part of adults. There are several ways how this can happen. 

Caretaker negligence 

When you place your child in another adult’s care, you expect that they will be watchful and keep your child from harm. This is true whether you drop your child off at school, daycare, or even a holiday camp. Caretakers are required to supervise and monitor children to ensure their safety. However, when a caretaker fails to do so, accidents can occur. When this happens you can hold the caretaker or the institution they work for responsible for your child’s injuries. 

Defective products 

Manufacturers have the responsibility to produce and distribute safe products. This is especially true when the intended consumer of the product is a child. It is easy for children to be injured as a result of using an unsafe product. When this happens it is possible to hold the company behind the product responsible for your child’s injuries. Both the manufacturer as well as the retailer that sold the product can be held liable. 

Premises liability 

Property owners are required by law to ensure their properties are reasonably safe for guests or visitors. They are therefore meant to attend to hazards or provide adequate warning about the hazards. While property owners have no obligation to protect trespassers, this does not apply to children. Property owners can be held liable for injuries children sustain as a result of dangerous conditions on their property even if the child wandered onto their property without an express invitation.

Frequently Asked Questions about Child Injuries in New York

What is my child’s injury case worth?

Putting an exact value on a child injury case can be tricky. There are no two cases that are exactly alike and there is no mathematical way to determine the exact amount of compensation you can recover for your claim. However, an experienced New York child injury lawyer can provide you with an approximate figure on how much you can expect to recover based on the circumstances surrounding your case as well as their experience in handling similar cases. This approximate figure will act as a guide in pursuing your claim and ensure that you can avoid settling for less than the true value of your case.

What compensation can I recover in a child injury case?

Every child injury case is unique. With the help of an experienced attorney, you can recover economic and non-economic damages for a child injury claim. Economic damages are given to compensate for financial losses resulting from the accident. These include: 
— Medical bills 
— Future medical expenses 
— Long term care 
— Rehabilitation 
— Permanent disability 
— Your lost wages for the period you take off work to care for your child. 

Non-economic damages are given to compensate for the psychological impact that an accident can have on the child and their parents. Non-economic damages may include: 
— Pain and suffering 
— Anxiety 
— Emotional distress 
— Post-traumatic stress disorder 
— Disfigurement 
— Loss of normal childhood 
— Diminished quality of life

What is Personal Injury?

If you’re injured as a result of a negligent third party, you may be entitled to compensation due to the damages you’ve experienced — either directly through the responsible party or their insurance company. An experienced New York personal injury lawyer will focus on tort law while seeking economic and non-economic damages for their clients — whether or not the target is a multi-million dollar award.

Personal injuries are classified as injuries to the body, mind, and emotions of an individual. When you suffer an injury because of another party, you experience turmoil, and your quality of life will change. Some victims experience loss of enjoyment of life, and even depression.

It’s important to speak with mindful attorneys who have the wisdom to handle your case effectively. Personal injury suits are filed against individuals or entities that cause harm due to recklessness, negligence, misconduct, or liability.

What Sets Us Apart?

Our attorneys and staff are competent, compassionate, and committed to seeking the maximum fair and appropriate compensation for all of our clients. We fight to win, not to quickly settle and move on to the next case. Our firm will make sure that you are properly advised of all of your options while giving you the proper legal advice to make the right decision for yourself and your family. We are willing to go above and beyond to meet your expectations, whether it’s meeting with you after hours, on the weekends, at your home, in the hospital, or at the office. We will make ourselves available for you 24/7.

We have been dedicated to Personal Injury and helping our clients pursue justice for over 30 years.

Types of Personal Injury

Personal injuries can refer to injuries sustained due to dental malpractice, product liability, or assault claims, but they more commonly involve the following types of injuries:

Car Accidents

When your vehicle collides with another vehicle, a pedestrian, an animal, debris, or another stationary obstruction such as a tree, pole, or building, you may face significant injuries and expenses that often include medical treatment and vehicle repairs. Following a car accident that was no fault of your own, it is important to immediately begin working with a New York personal injury lawyer to seek fair and appropriate compensation.

Truck Accidents

Motor vehicle accidents involving a truck or tractor-trailer and caused by the recklessness of others will present additional complex factors that are not present in a regular car accident case. You can be certain that there will be attorneys representing the truck driver, which is why you should partner with a New York personal injury lawyer at our law office immediately.

Motorcycle Accidents

When your motorcycle is involved in a motor vehicle accident at no fault of your own, you will need help in your fight to be fairly compensated in your case. As a client of our law firm, you can be confident that we are bringing the fight to the insurance company.

Premises Liability

An injury from an accident caused by unsafe conditions on someone else’s property often involves a fall on a slippery or uneven surface. Other types of negligence or dangerous circumstances may also lead to an injury or death. In some cases, your accident could amount to a multi-million dollar settlement. Our law office of NY accident attorneys will be happy to guide you through this process as our client.

Dog Bite

Dog owners are generally determined to be liable if their dog hurts you or anyone else. New York personal injury law in this situation provides a means to seek compensation for your medical expenses, your pain and suffering, & much more.

Slip and Fall

A property owner could be liable for damages if you slip, trip, and fall on their property due to their negligence. Working with a qualified New York personal injury lawyer in this situation is important because the Queens, Nassau County, Suffolk County, or Long Island property owner that you file a claim against will certainly be represented by law firms who are trying to dismiss or settle your case for as little as possible.

Construction Accidents

An injury sustained due to working on a construction site can be life-changing or deadly. In many cases, such an injury will prevent your ability to continue working for some duration of time. Workers’ compensation is available for these types of accidents. Depending on the details of your case, you may also be able to file a lawsuit.

Wrongful Death

Death caused by negligence or intentional actions of another party is known as wrongful death. The NY accident attorneys at our law office are experienced in these cases and are ready to help you fight for the money you need.

Medical Malpractice

When you work with a licensed medical professional, you have every right to expect that they will take prudent and cautious steps to help you work towards a successful recovery. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. The New York personal injury attorneys at our law firm are ready to help you fight for fair compensation.

What types of compensation can be received in a personal injury case?

There are several types of compensable damages that can be received including money for lost wages and career change, property damage compensation, health aids, and home rehabilitation to accommodate for the injuries sustained.
