Child injury attorney in conyers

Young children deserve our protection. We need to make society safe for kids. Unfortunately, in far too many cases, children end up getting injured in preventable accidents. Children are more likely to be involved in an accident, and when accidents do occur, they are also more likely to sustain especially severe injuries.

According to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 1 in every 6 American children visit the emergency room each year. Of course, some of these visits are inevitable, but many could have been avoided with proper safety precautions.

What To Do If Your Child Is Injured

  • Get Medical Attention

Injured children always require professional medical attention. Please do not take any chances with the health and safety of your child. After an accident, you should get them to a hospital or doctor as soon as you possibly can. Our legal team is ready to work with your child’s doctors.

  • Document Your Child’s Accident

To the best of your ability, you should try to proactively document your child’s accident and injuries. Of course, this can be difficult to do in the chaotic scene immediately following an accident. Try to take pictures of the accident scene, photograph your child’s injuries, get contact information for witnesses, and write down exactly what happened to cause the accident.

  • File a Report

All child injuries should be reported to the appropriate parties. Where you file a report and who you send it to will depend entirely on the specific circumstances of your claim. For example, if your child was injured in a local car accident, you will need to report the crash to the Conyers Police Department or Georgia State Patrol.

Alternatively, if your kid was hurt in an accident that happened at school, their injuries should be reported to their teachers and the administration. If you are not sure how to report the accident, our GA child injury attorneys will assist you.

  • Consult With an Attorney

You do not have to work through this process all by yourself. If your child was seriously injured in an accident, you should seek legal advice. Recovering fair compensation is difficult, especially in child injuries cases. The best thing that you can do to protect your interests is to work with any businesses, schools, insurance companies, or other defendants directly through your injury lawyer.

Who is Responsible for a Child’s Injuries?

To hold another party legally liable for your child’s injuries, you will be required to prove that their negligence, in some form, contributed to the accident. Notably, minor injury claims involve certain unique considerations. One of the most important things to know about child injuries claims is that individuals, businesses, and organizations often have heightened duties to look out for the safety of children, especially to young children.

Your kid should not be blamed for an accident. The adults in charge need to keep children safe. Our Georgia child injury attorneys will determine who let your child down and put their safety at risk. Some common examples of defendants may include:

  • Caretakers who were in charge of watching your child;
  • Public and private schools;
  • Coaches and organized sports teams;
  • Businesses and property owners;
  • Motorists; and
  • Product manufacturers and distributors.

Financial Compensation Available in Child Injury Claims

Parents need to be able to recover full and fair compensation for their children. If your child was injured, he or she must be able to get high-quality medical care. How much compensation is available will depend on several different factors.

Indeed, valuing a child injury case can be especially complex. It is advised that you consult with an experienced Georgia injury attorney who can investigate your claim, document your damages, and bring the strongest possible case so that you can get full compensation.

Money damages may be available for any of the following:

  • Emergency medical bills;
  • Ongoing medical care;
  • Physical therapy and rehabilitative care;
  • Long-term disability;
  • Other related economic losses;
  • Diminishment of child’s future earning capacity;
  • Pain and suffering;
  • Emotional distress
  • Disfigurement; and
  • The wrongful death of a child.
