School & Day Care Accidents
There are endless worries when it comes to bringing a child into this world. We constantly worry about their safety and protection. As parents, we take every precaution and step necessary to ensure that our children are safe. We assume that when we choose care facilities for our children, we are choosing places that will take the same steps as us to ensure their safety. What happens when the very people we tasked with caring for our children are the ones who cause our children to be hurt? At Corsiglia McMahon & Allard, L.L.P., we have dedicated and experienced trial lawyers eager to accept your case when a care provider negligently allows your child to be endangered.
The attorneys at Corsiglia McMahon & Allard, L.L.P. understand how to pursue cases in which their clients' children are injured by another student while at school. Our lawyers handle cases including:
- Injuries stemming from bullying
- Playground injuries resulting from defective equipment
- Injuries stemming from the negligent supervision of a caretaker
- Injuries caused by sports or recreational activities at school
Choosing a daycare facility is not a choice that parents make lightly. They do their research, ask the questions that they think are important, and make the best decision that their budget will allow. The worst nightmare is getting a call from the child's daycare because there has been an accident. When that accident has been caused by the action or inaction of a care provider, the party needs to be held accountable for its failure and resulting injury.
At Corsiglia, McMahon, and Allard, L.L.P., attorneys have years of experience with protecting the rights of clients' children who have been injured at daycare. It does not matter if the injury was the result of an accident or intentional abuse; it is imperative that parents talk to Bay Area daycare injury attorneys about aggressively defending their rights and pursuing their case when the people who are supposed to take the most care of their children take the least, and as a result, a loved one is injured.
I Had to Sign a Contract to Get My Child Into Daycare. Can I Still Sue?Some establishments will force their student's parents to sign a contract in order for their child to be admitted to the daycare facility. These contracts may have a provision in them regarding indemnification. Signing one of these contracts is not an absolute bar to suit. Speaking with one of the lawyers at Corsiglia McMahon & Allard, L.L.P. will help you determine if you have a case.
How Do I Know If the Daycare Was Negligent?One thing that our lawyers will do when reviewing your case is explain everything that we need to prove in order to get you the best outcome. They will first establish the daycare's duty to protect your child, then examine how the actions or non-actions of a daycare were a direct or proximate cause of your child's injury. Finally, once we have investigated the facts of your case, we will discuss the expectations that we have moving forward with your claim.
